    Man it is windy today. Once I got dumped in Augusta, I was bounced clear back to Hartford to load rock for McPherson. Luckily at McPherson where we dump, the truck was facing away from the wind, which was coming out of the North. This helps a lot. However once I had the bucket standing up, it started dancing. (Got to remember to shut my stereo off before I dump). So I quickly lowered it, and it still rocked while coming down.

    From there went to Lyons and loaded for Cleveland, MO. Ran smack out of my 14 at the yard. Oh well, the shop needs to do an oil change anyway. So I'm home for the night.

    That's nothing. The wind in Wyoming was 50+ MPH gusts. My tractor was blown all over the place, but my heavy trailer kept me grounded.

    Draped up and drifted out. Know what I'm talking about? Three in the morning, just stashed up my stash spot.

    Sigh. Another three delivery Monday. About $41 before the deductions start.

    Truck will almost certainly break before I can get it fixed properly.

    I love where I live, but the 48 miles each way take a toll.
