The journey begins - purchased a truck.

Yeah. I thought since he was always asking about drinking beer on the road, he got busted. But he was a happy enough fella. Good guy.

 

Hey, I resemble that remark. Back in the early 80's I hauled NC wood chips two evenings/nights a week up the mountain to Campion Paper in Canton. I had taken some time off the road, and it brought in extra money.

Always wanted to take the big ride up in the air when they dumped the chips out, but didn't have the nerve.

Almost everything then was cabovers and 40 foot trailers, so the whole truck would fit on the lift, and away it went. The operators told me I could go up, but just couldn't do it.

 

He was a #### stirrer from the word go and I loved it

 

I won’t hold it against you.

 

Since you brought up past members—I heard from Uncle Pete a little while ago and he got roped into training rookie drivers— I would have loved to be a fly on the wall in the cab of that truck

 

I’d certainly be interested in an @Oxbow official interview- from the limited jobs I have seen from their worksites I’m quite impressed.

 

Hasn't been terribly impressive this spring. Ice, frost, and now mud, but we do get to work in some cool places!

 

About the coolest thing I’ve seen for a while— except the biiitch eating the work — not cool

 

Betcha he wasn’t what you were expecting, eh? He is a good guy and was a top performer where he works.
