    I may invite him up where I live to go to school to get that GED and widen his options. Build a bit of confidence too

    I'm going to have my nephew on the truck for a trip to colorado and back. He's from FL , so maybe this will test his might when he jumps out for a smoke.

    You know it's cold when the northern Michigan guy switches to sweat pants from shorts.

    -15 in north central Wisconsin last night. My truck doesn't like that kind of cold and neither do I anymore.

    Made it to Denver avoiding any nasty weather. Now I have a load to Ohio, and I'm hearing they got dumped on. Going to the east side of Columbus

    I came across an "ex" contractor for my company that left in August. He asked how things were going and if I was moving.
    Yup.
    Now he says he plans to bring his truck back because be kept more money with more D/H loads . He went to a reefer company and grossed more , but he said he spent more waiting on loads and didn't get paid deadhead.
    Yup

    Dumped on is right.mafter getting an email from my plow company saying they were sending all their crews out to plow after 1.5" of snow because they "hadn't been out much this winter," the snow started falling 2 days ago and it's still falling. Heavy snow, too. My guess is 10" or more; and more lake effect snow coming.
