I think she got it from her gardening. One of her plant leaves she is allergic too. She worked in the garden then may have had an itch and ZOT she got the rash. She just wanted to say I infected her. Fine, I will take the blame.
The camera didnt show the spots so I marked the infection with magic marker

I don't know exactly when they unloaded me. I just know it takes three hours to hand unload tires. I went back at 11am. We were ready to go.
Took trailer back to shop. Which is about a mile the other direction from my home that the receiver was (1 mile). Really puttin on the mileage today.
Then I looky looed at Cabelas. Then got me a Pauly's Meatball Sandwich.
Now basking in the delight of my swamp cooler.
Life is tough....
Boss said we might switch trailers. This one needs to go in for a couple suspension bags. He knows I need miles. I won't say anything. It would just be whining. He's trying to get me back out. Right now he's chasing down parts for another truck.Last edited: Jul 30, 2020

I have many fond memories of trips from DC to Cali and Chicago by Amtrak. Last time I took it, it was...300 bucks round trip from DC to L.A. 3 day trip. Then again...last time I took a train was...2003 or 05.
As a smoker, I loved they had a smoking car. Wraparound windows, pretty spiffy. Great scenery.
Met some crazy folks on trains also. Not scary crazy but entertaining crazy. Greyhound...I always had one psycho crazy guy on the bus, and you couldn't escape him because it's a bus! Train though? Walk to another car, problem is gone. haha.
I remember on one trip, the guy I met going into L.A.. He was a hitman for the mob according to him. Pretty sure after about 5 minutes, the loony tune theme song should've been playing. He had about 2 dozen screws loose, and lost. I have others, but their not forum friendly stories.
Oh I've met some characters on a train, but if I had to travel, and a car or plane wasn't an option, the train would be my choice. Actually I'd take it over a plane if I could. I have no fear of flying but I do dislike wasting my time in security lines, trapped in a giant metal tube with idiots who you can't escape...nah, train for me. At lest I can walk away from the idiots. Not to mention all the silly rules and fees, eff that.
Enjoy the ride.

Drop anchor at Love's in Low Moor, VA.
Don't have enough drive time to get back to Cincinnati terminal anyway, so why not.
