    This is the same crew that built the new drivers lounge and redid all the bathrooms, we call them the Duck Dynasty bunch. Nice fellas, but slowwww........if we base the new construction on the time it took them to do the bathrooms and lounge, we all might be retired, at least I will.

    Hey, just giving a little plug for the bar/restaurant I have been frequenting lately!!!

    CS Roadhouse (in the parking lot of VIP)

    They are having a fund raiser event today from Noon to 5pm... It's in support for a sick girl in the area... Seems to be a family focused carnival theme.

    If you are on the yard and want to come help a good cause, check it out.

    And, as a restaurant it's not bad either. Decent basic menu with specials every night. Been here with a certain blonde chick as well as others and it's a pretty good laid back place.

    And they have TRUCK PARKING in back too... So there is normally plenty of room to bobtail over here and park for a meal. (That may not be the case during the fund raiser today as its beening set up in part of the regular parking lot.


    Stay Safe,
    MD

    You I'm not worried about, that drunk you were out with the other night is who I'm worried about.

    Yes, we don't know what we are going to hit until we get to the drop... No way someone behind a desk in Richmond is going to know.

    It's their job to push to load... Simple.
    It's our job to know when we passed our limit.

    But to be honest, I have pushed a trailer into places I was SURE wasn't going to happen. Surprises the hell out of me when it happens!!!

    Just be safe with each maneuver.
    (Or take it to the yard like JB does... lol)
