    I'm from Blount county (oneonta) I get a lot of loads delivering to Decatur to get me home. Which is about 50 miles from the house.

    So today I saw a maverick driver heading west on I20 near talladega alabama hauling what I could only describe as extremely large crayons. White at both ends and grey in the middle. One end pointed and the other flat (like a crayon). Any idea what those are?

    and now that I have arrived at this place in Prospect, CT., I now understand that I will have to roll up both lumber tarps in literally 6-12" deep liquid mud tomorrow... Ugh. I am not sure that I even remember how to roll them up LOL! Throw in the mud, this should only take me a few hours. Gotta complain, don't I?? :biggrin_25523:

    On the bright side, maybe it'll be so cold and windy that the mud will be frozen.. :)

    Yep! Turns out that it was almost all frozen. There were spots that were veiled by thin ice that would break under foot and squash! Ankle deep in cold liquid mud. But, most of it was frozen solid thank goodness. I seriously could not remember how to get those stupid lumber tarps rolled up correctly LOL! They are too long (rolled up). I am gonna have to take 'em home and clean them off anyways, so I will try again at home when I have much more time to figure it out. When ya don't use something for a year and a half almost, funny how things can slip yer mind I guess.... Sarge- you better not yell at me for forgetting LMAO.

    A couple of days ago in Malvern, I went to help a driver fold up his lumber tarp (4got his name, yeah, I suck) anyway, he says "Thanks, but I got it." He then proceeds to rub rail it. I didn't even know that was possible. He had that lumber tarp off his truck, folded, rolled, bungied and in the tarp box before I could even finish saying "I didn't even know that was possible."
