    George Jones would have done that; but he got to the riding lawnmower first, got to get that drink.

    We have woke and have a new indigenous clock.

    We shall release moorings and continue onward through the Savage PNW.

    The last time we came through here we noticed a new TA in Orygun just passed the scale.

    So this time we stopped for fuel cause it's cheap, cheap, like the birdie.

    Place has 10 or 12 fuel lanes, all open.

    The OM isn't sure which is more impressive,

    The fact that somebody has already destroyed one of the card readers, or that we picked that lane.

    Yep, George Jones riding the mower right after this-

    The King Is Gone (So Are You)

    Last night, I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter
    That looks like Elvis
    I soaked the label off a Flintstone Jelly Bean jar

    I cleared us off a place on that
    One little table that you left us
    And pulled me up a big ole piece of floor

    I pulled the head off Elvis
    Filled Fred up to his pelvis
    Yabba Dabba Doo, the King is gone
    And so are you

    'Round about ten, we all got to talking
    'Bout Graceland, Bedrock and such
    The conversation finally turned to women
    But they said they didn't get around too much
    Elvis said, "Find 'em young"
    And Fred said, "Old fashioned girls are fun"
    Yabba Dabba Doo, the King is gone
    And so are you

    Later on, it finally hit me
    That you wouldn't be ah coming home no more
    'Cause this time I know you won't forgive me
    Like all of them other times before
    Then I broke Elvis' nose
    Pouring the last drop from his toes
    Yabba Dabba Doo, the King is gone
    And so are you
    Yabba Dabba Doo, the King is gone
    So are you

    Last night, I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter
    That looks like Elvis
    I soaked the label off
    A Flintstone Jelly Bean jar...

    Well.

    Gotta wait til insurance company company opens to swap insurance from non commercial, to commercial on freightliner.

    Need to swap out those batteries on parksmart.
    Supposed to have a load setup for tomorrow, but we’ll just sit back and listen to the playlist.




    (Yeah, I still like Redbone)

    Yup. It's not as bad as last year but it's bad enough.

    Yeah it isn't as bad as last year yet. That area needs a break. I'll give them props for fixing the hills after last years fires I really was expecting major slides this year. That and a lack of heavy rainfall helped I suppose.

    Yup. The drought was a mixed blessing I guess. I probably wouldn't say that out loud at the next Rice Grower's meeting or at the Almond Growers .
    There's a lot of road remediation and slope channeling going on on last year's burns. Lots of state and federal bucks being spent.
    You'll get a kick out of this...a lot of the old logging roads that were taken out are being put back in or will be in the next couple of years. It dawned on them...finally...that they were restricting access to fire equipment.
    Sometimes it seems like a contest between the Feds and the State to see which one is dumber.
