    They had 40+ gusts from Cheyenne to Rawlins, but it was mostly head on. Roads are excellent. Sky is klar.

    Every truck stop is PACKED at the fuel islands.

    Got some chicken on 30 at Love's. Fueled in Ft. Bridger.

    There are times you have to. I type this in brevity, I am still in battle myself. Not over yet. It comes and goes.

    OTC medicines don't do a #### thing. If you have real medicines by IV then you will feel a hell of alot better in a short time provided it is the right medicine.

    Tamiflu was the first for me this round. Its a antiviral. In the past there was nothing much to fight viruses in a body that constantly doubles or triples a generation every hour system wide. (Hows that for a picture.)

    Last summer I bought a kit to service the APU.

    Well it comes with a cab filter, that I never replaced........until yesterday since I was under there.

    Well the old one was disgusting, but not like as full of cat hair as you'd think disgusting.

    So now the bunk heater BLOWS like the torch on a hot air balloon, and I can't even put my leg in front of it.

    What really makes you feel great, while walking almost to shipper/reciever, you feel a great sneeze coming on.
    So you stand there like an idiot, and wait.
    Then it goes away. You go inside to sign BOL and it comes outta nowhere and with a nose stopped like concrete, you throw snot all over the place and its all in your mustache, so you luckily keep napkins in coat pocket to try and make filth look decent.
    Time you get back inside your truck you got snotsicles all in your mustache..

    Yea putting a can or cans of soup in front of the flame flower gets them plenty hot, and I have the makings for sandwiches.

    OR

    You can brave said wind chill.
