    I kniw what ya mean... I run WY every week most generally twice a week. When the weather gets bad I'll wait until after dark and run it alone.

    Yeah wind is one of the few weather conditions that can wreck a truck all by itself, and must be respected. And each driver has to make the decision to stop or go for themselves, lots of experience is needed to really know when its safe to drive in high winds like WY gets.

    why not sponge off in the handicapped stall? At least get the "boys" and pits cleaned. That way you are not as ripe as you feel now. I've done that a time or two.

    Also you buy some of that medical shop body bath and shower liquid. Small container, bowl of water and wash cloth takes care of it. Dries itself in a few minutes especially hair.

    One of the caregivers introduced me to that stuff after the surgery. Almost a bird bath.

    I just noticed, I think those are stacked new tractors. I thought it was odd that they were all Pete's and then I noticed one has a transport tag in the window.
     
    Moon_beam Thanks this.

    Lucky.

    I can be good all day long and still have bad luck.

    Lucky people walk away from an accident that should have killed them with a girlfriend, movie rights and a winning ticket from the last Lotto he stopped at.

    So yeah, skill is great,
    but dumb luck is better
