    OMG...that is freaking cold!! Yep the truck has a GREAT furnace in it and we have the sat dish (have to point this one) and the van has a heater in it too so we will be ok....but I HATE being cold....come on April! It is supposed to be 73 today and the weather will be nice till we leave CA. We load Wed and supposed to deliver the 28th weather permitting.

    It doesn't get cold in MN anymore, so no worries. It certainly doesn't snow either.

    We met Jim and Pam yesterday they are the new O\O couple that signed on and they told me about you. He said you got a real good deal. I hope you enjoy working with Combined and give it some time...sometimes things at Combined take a little while to work out. Be safe and maybe we will see ya out there somewhere.
