    The Dominos app is pretty cool. I can watch the guy drive to me. Now I know what my dispatchers feel like watching my truck on their computer.

    Gotta love ya some Idaho Spuds... Lol

    But Norkotahs aren't as good as Burbanks though. Burbanks make better mashed and baked potatoes, Norkotahs on the other hand are good for frying.

    I was one valley east of you coming down 34, and you are right, it was a glorious sunrise. I really enjoyed it.
