    The first thing I did after retiring from my "cushy gummint job" was get a CDL and go OTR in a reefer.

    HA, skellr, that sign has been replaced many times. It's located on I-94 near Kenosha, Wis. It's really a neat area, and once was home to the Nash test track in the 50's. It's named after Major Richard I. Bong, the WW2 flying ace, that shot down at least 40 Japanese planes. He was from N. Wisconsin.

    In some areas of where you and I live, we are going to see the temps today reach as high as 60 degree's.

    From one New Englander to another, get your "ace" out ah da howse.
