    Hey my dear friend double yellow! :biggrin_25519:

    Hope you are being able to "dodge" the nasty snow storms there and making some good money... :yes2557:

    Dad's wife bought that barbecue thing just like that in a store... Folks here are very creative "recycling" things... :yes2557:

    There was no fire in that outlet... that's dirt on the wall... :biggrin_2552:

    I used to sleep in a hammock like that in the early 80's when I was a backpacker, hitchhiking on Brazilian roads for months and months...

    No more mosquitoes flying over me when I am trying to sleep at night... Now have a mosquito net over my bed... :yes2557:

    I've been relaxing some. But will get busy starting next Monday...

    You be safe out there my friend... :biggrin_25519:

    I have escaped from nasty nasty snow storms and lots of hassles and hazards on the road but I have missed quite valuable winter driving "practice" this year... And I wonder what next year's winter will be... Seems that each year it gets worse... :biggrin_2552: You all take care out there...

    I thought about posting my comments about this strike in the political forum... :scratch: Posted it here so far just to share what is going on where I am now with you folks... although I know this has nothing to do with this thread...

    BTW, you can find some more info about the strike, their motives, demands, etc if you Google it...

    Some striking truckers lifted their blockade of dozens of highways after PRF (Federal Highway Police) began fining and arresting protesters, though strike organizers said they had no plans to end their blockage now... :biggrin_25512:

    The highway police bulletin said 25 fines had been issued in Parana some days ago... but drivers were not swayed by Justice Minister Jose Eduardo Cardozo's threat to impose fines of 5,000 to 10,000 reais ($1,700-$3,400) per hour on truckers who illegally blocked roads. :biggrin_25512:

    One last thing, the high price of diesel and toll prices, rising freight costs, low freight prices, abusive tariffs, changes to new regulations on drivers' downtime during long hauls and better road conditions are just some of the reasons for their strike...

    They are also joining thousands of other citizens protesting the federal government's shenanigans and planning on participating on a big nationwide protest that will take place on March/15 to demand the President, Dilma's impeachment.

    Rolling some of Crankie's route. Trying to skirt the northern side of this storm looked like a better idea........

    So far the idea seems to be working.
     
    tsavory and TruckDuo Thank this.
