    At the rest area near Brookings, SD for the night because my trailer marker lights keep blowing the fuse and I'm now out of spare fuses and it's dark. Was looking to make Norfolk, NE but that's not happening in the dark with four way flashers.

    Didn't have a problem in the sunshine on dry pavement, but as soon as the water kicked up, they popped off.

    Got to be a short somewhere on the trailer I'm thinking because all the other trailer lights are working just fine. Sprayed both plugs liberally with WD40 but it still keep blowing.

    I guess whatever they did for safety on the trailer might have exposed a wire or something (I don't think I've had it in heavy rain since either).

    From what I’m learning you are exact. Do you remember me talking about following a cop into the woods to find a occupied tent, and he called for backup?? That particular cop is a personal Freind..... the stories he told are out of this world! It is feared that the junkies are going to spill over into my neck of the woods. I took @superhauler through town here, it’s a decent place to live..... for now!

    I can't stand meth heads. I had a close family member's life put in the balance because of some stunned ##### that was ODing on meth. My relative needed emergency surgery ASAP and they missed the small window for it because all the ER resources were put towards saving the junky. Go out into the wait room at 2am and its nothing but deadbeat methheads these days.
