    That A Game...so marvelous to behold!

    Had a couple drivers returning from BC with a pair of oversized. They stopped at that casino near Everette. Chain law was in effect at Snoqualmie. One driver watched the weather and saw a potential break coming. He went to the TA. The other driver went back inside the casino.

    They lifted the chain law, and the driver at the TA scrambled and called his friend. The other driver hammered out from Everette but by the time he made it to the TA, the chain law was back in effect for another 3 days.

    The absolute best way to make money and save money is through time management. But guys, you HAVE TO BE READY TO MOVE.

    Inclement weather is a relative term. The weather was starting at day light. Wouldnt have been any trouble to jump the gun a bit and drive out of it. Ive put 170k on 13 axles and ran it through a foot of mud and snow. I sure didn't ##### foot around when i did it or try to pretend i was special.

    I dont know about you,but i get paid to move ####.
