    Well the nearly 4 1/2 month reset ( except a week or so of UPS in December) is over. Pick up tomorrow in SC and GA and roll to Fl for Thursday delivery.

    Point the truck to the midwest and come play in the snow. Its 30 degrees right now and it feels like spring time

    Where you picking up? I’m at the coca cola in Waco right now. Should be done loading shortly.

    When you can back into a 104 inch wide dock, thats inside a building and a black hole, so you see nothing. With a door opening that if you miss, will take off your mirrors. And when your parked in that dock, you have to climb out the window to get out of the truck, because you can’t open the door. Do this with out tearing anything up.

    It's been brutal trying to catch up. Just squirted 4 month old ketchup on my finger and it's still pretty tasty. Lucky to have it really. Getting ready to spread some on a Food Lion sub that went out of date yesterday.
    Hope everyone is killing it. Red buds on the trees down south. Only six more weeks till this BS is over.
