    Sounds like Kroger. What'd I win? LOL

    Just dropped my trailer for valet service at a poultry venture in Monterey. No, not the cool hipster village on the left coast, the one in the middle of Tennessee. Thought I would be checking right back in with a reload, but apparently it's a Wednesday load. Someone's getting their load back in the morning.

    We just headed out from Prescott, Ark...TA on I-40...real nice showers, good food at Country Pride,
    not a parking spot to be had anywhere. The one we pulled out of had 3 trucks jocking for it as we left.

    Sitting in the outpost called MN and have a few observations while watching it rain/snow...snow/rain...Things which make ya go :biggrin_2556:

    1.In Nov when the 1st snow comes it makes some people all smiley and excited..Now in March it makes them frown and grumpy.

    2.Why in Oct when the temp 1st hits 30* the flannel shirts,sweaters,coats and parkas are being worn..In March at 30* they are coming off. Of course the under "20 year old crowd" believes in wearing T-shirts year around.

    3. Why did my ancestors cross an ocean..half a continent..and decide to settle in a place much more miserable than what they left? Were they running from the law and determined the cops would never follow them here? Similarly why do their descendent's stay here?

    Have a Good Day...eh!?!:biggrin_255:

    Sitting at the dock in Forest Park, Ga. Left Yuma Saturday and played windsurfer all the way to La. Lots of fun. Get this one off and then see what the travel agents have up their sleeve. Y'all have a good one and keep the shiny side up!

    just picked up in Hershey PA on our way to Olive Branch MS
    them to Waxahachie TX and finally to Denver

    trainer's regen keeps throwing errors and we had to regen at idle three times in last three days
    along with these three short mileage loads in a row, trainer is pissed, will stay out of his way for a spell

    fun fact: Coca Cola is a haz mat load!

    we will be running kind of hard on these three, may not be anywhere very long

    yes Mr. Bumpy, they were 4 legged dogs LOL thanks for that

    No problem Done My way..I mean Done Your WAY..I was thinking of an old Burger King comercial (sorry) but now I'm wondering about the Coke? Isn't that a DEA load? It would make a great CSI episode..:biggrin_255:
