    Got to know , when to hold, when to fold and when to move on. Kind of like doing the "can't talk bout them loads" anyways. I've done these before, never load or unload, never tarp, or even secure thats all dome inside a warehouse before I even see the trailer. Wierd, yup. ;ittle green men, don't know, don't ask.
     
    Lonwolv54, Numb and Lonesome Thank this.

    You have earned the right to do what you want to do. I applaud you for continuing what you love to do at your age. I retired last year at age 60 from a local Teamster Union tanker company after 30 years of service. I've been to Mercury NV many times. It's a very interesting place with a lot of history. I remember passing the old wooden bleachers where everyone sat to watch the tests as well as passing by the numerous craters. And I can't forget the radiation badges that were issued upon entry. Good luck to you sir.
