    You’d be surprised at how careful cats are in trying to not disturb anything.
    Now dogs are different. They’re fun. Got a driver friend who has to lock her windows. Dog learned how to operate them. Then goes playing with the windows while she’s driving down the road. :)

    Mine rolled down the windows at a Petro one mornimg.

    My routine used to be start truck, go inside, clean up, get coffee maybe to go box, pre trip, down the road.

    I come out one morning and they are hanging out the passenger window looking around.

    I went and changed cell carrier. T-Mobile chased me away with bad goof ups on billing and belligerent answers.
    I got ATT and am very happy so far. It’s working much better. Candidness about my plan and limits etc. Also one place I’d like Service is in the boonies of Arkansas. Security guard told me her att sometimes doesn’t work there. At those times she can walk around the parking lot and find a signal. Said Verizon is same. My T never had a signal there. I’ll be going to Ark. two times this week. Hoping to get my paperwork sent in quick. Even if I have to stand somewhere in the parking lot taking pictures, then sending.

    Hehe! I loves holidays! :laughing-guffaw:
    It seems each Holiday. I’m the only one working! On the 4th, other guy had a family member die. Wonder what the reason is this time? Other driver scheduled a doctors appointment out of town for Tuesday. Ain’t it uncanny how that works? :laughing-guffaw:
    I just got a text. Need to cover for a run to Ok. tomorrow. Then do Ark. afterward.
    I just wish we had more Holidays! :laughing-guffaw:

    It’s famous!
    Notice they have lights for the intersection. They just don’t use them.

    My ATT is working great at this plant in the boonies of Arkansas. I couldn’t be happier.

    5D111814-D28D-46BF-830D-89A1BFC47B9D.jpeg My cat reached up to my bucket and tried scratching the side. Noticed her do it again. Then I remembered I have a wide round scratching post for her at home. Guess the carpet on the floor isn’t good enough?
    So I modified my bucket. I get good use out of that in several ways. Now another good use for it

    Excellent. I have thoughts for a custom cat set up on the passenger side.
