    Seen enough of that area the last few weeks. Enjoy. I have to roll at 0530 tomorrow. Nice to be on the early shift.

    I like to drive early too... That's why my finisher actually gave me the nickname rooster

    it's the fog that I'm not looking forward to

    Remember we had the same finisher. His name is James. What ever happened to him anyway?
    Better fog than rain, snow, or ice on Fancy Gap.

    So he stopped driving? When? I know they were looking at moving to Springfield during my training time.

    Glad to hear he got a trucking company started. He had mentioned buying his own truck at some point. I'm hoping to be hanging up my keys for good in the not to distant future. We'll see if it really happens.

    I woke up this morning with a pre-plan on my Qualcomm go figure...

    Four Oaks North Carolina to Schenectady New York...didn't see any snow today...what?

    I was coming down I-77 yesterday in Bluefield...passing that local Landmark called Southern xposure..there's a little brown UPS truck out front with the flashers on...

    do you suppose it was an emergency order of Chinese glitter...Chinese pasties...Chinese g-strings...

    I'm counting for resident Brown expert should give us some feedback here

    Prob a bunch of those hoverboards & JC penny amazon junk. I walked a ton of those. It was terrible.

    Got the countdown on....ready to get back to doing nothing. Gonna put some new hardwood floors into one of the rentals.

    Looking at building a cheapass party pole barn in an octagon shape. Rent it out to the college students... Since the gated college community got shot up...come live in the side country! City keeps getting worse & worse. New Arena is even going bankrupt.

    Could prob squeeze 8 rooms in there with a double bathroom on the ground level. Be a cash cow.
    Be like 60k to get it done right 2 floors.
    Pay itself off in two years.


    Tolls start here on DEC 30th BTW if anyone cares.
