    42' x 96"x 72" sides. Ultra light cornhusker with super singles. Thought about them but very pricey and prone to cracking.

    It seems that things are only starting to pick up. Finding that people are starting to post loads finally.

    Hauled loads out of Alden again until contract ended. Farmers said may cut corn tomorrow. Hopefully things continue to pick up.
