    Hi Wheathauler. Rock truck broke a springhanger and blew a tire today. Got that fixed so back at it tomorrow. The boss told me today he's looking for an enddump to haul rocks and litter with. I'm for the extra work and I guess I'll get used to the smell. 1 of the shakers has a wet kit so I guess we're ready. I do hope we stick with dry litter and not that hen stuff.

    Looked it up was curious. 20 or so miles northwest from Jonesboro Arkansas. Northeast part of state. Surprised me thought it would be in southern part. Didn't mean to answer for you Cowdoc just got too curious.

    I was surprised you were that close to so many states. That would make for some interesting hauling.

    Anybody ever hauled litter? That mess is very corrosive. It will eat thru concrete.

    No, don't believe I want to either if it is that corrosive. What kind of litter is it?
