    delivered bird balls to a drill site two winters ago, all 4 outside drives were chained, left front steer was chained, and one drag chain installed. They wanted 3 railers but we don't carry them.

    We must have passed they there at the same time. I was going up to Bakersfield and was going to run 15-395 to 58. After seeing that plus feeling that wind I turned me and my empty wagon and too the easy way of 10,210,5 to 99. Wasn't in the mood to play in that.
