    Really it is a bit late to worry about it snowing this late in the season, that should have been thought of back in August and have everything ready for the first slam, chains should have been stuck on once just to make sure they fit right, supplies stocked up. Should of been ready a long time ago.

    He's very well aware of this.

    Remember if you follow just the words he put on "You realize we are late this far into a season, implying spring time is coming on really fast....

    We had our winter, it's almost over except for the crying.

    Sorry I stand with @pmdriver on this one. The age of the dead cooking on the fire roasting spit does not matter to me in this case we made it yet again through another winter.

    Ive been having trouble mentally with passage of time. Two months ago I had a brutal surgery and PT burned up another month and here we are again burning up month two already. Im already done as far as this month is concerned and working already on March Month.

    We did change medicine recently and it does have a history of making a 8 hour pull of a day come across as a two hour nap.

    I am liking the charm on the shed roofing area. I think it's pretty good design.

    I love me that Cash, but JD cracks me up a little bit. Just like some of that Red Sovine among others. Now if I can find me that Mountain Mama...

    And to do it flying a experimental class Airframe as well.

    Maybe I am a little more put out than most. A dear beloved friend (He's quite normal thank god, loved his woman and kids but anyway) in our time he had known JD first and and put me in a position to very briefly meet some of these Gods that rule our entertainment

    We were in a position to make the meet and greet happen a handful of times towards his last months on earth.. particularly when pilot stuff came up and could not be done just that hour or day according to weather conditions. But on anyone's last day they fly away on a Concorde chartered just for them strictly to the pearly gates on full burner.

    I just have one wish. That someone builds with a pair of balls... that is... "Son of Concorde" and that it goes like a bat out of hell fast, higher and god knows a little more number of puke bags until the People get used to the hellcat with wings. None of that crap wimpy littly pottering ecohugging crap allowed here.

    That was Bob Denver. Not Petty. I'm sure you knew that but had to point out the obvious.

    I overdressed for the occasion today. Woke up yesterday in OKC and got a shower, put on thin long johns and a turtleneck. Waiting for a dispatch. A funky little "can't deliver 'till Monday load fell through. Then I got a mid afternoon call for a good paying load, picking up in OKC and delivering asap in Corpus Christi.

    The long johns and turtleneck where required right up until about Waco. Oh, I forgot to mention the turbo thermal socks.

    I got to Corpus Christi at 3:30 am. It was 70°F! I sweat my balls off unchaining five "goat heads". Used a quarter roll of paper towels to dry off.

    Parked now at the FJ in George West, TX in a heavy fog. Let's see if I can score some more loads south of I-10.
