    No, I didn’t get the load, never heard back. I loaded yesterday in Toledo, about noon, delivered Louisville last night, it paid good. Picking up now in Indy, delivers 1 mile from home in Michigan. I was hoping to get a short one today, back to Indy. But Still worked out pretty good.

    May not, but was a #### good stop. Proper distance and looking straight at the problem.

Original houses were built in the 1920s. They’re all gone. New “Urban Renewel” houses were built. We sold ours in 1990. We were surrounded by Crack houses. Within 2 yrs. it was destroyed and burned. This house was built in its place, in 1999. It was a nice house. Looks like it’s another victim of section 8 renters. Unbelievable.

    Well... I spent 2 hours Monday on the chainsaw bucking firewood... In 6 inches of snow. Tuesday I didnt even get dressed.

    Wednesday I picked up a loaded trailer and drove into the wee hours of Thursday (today). Most of the journey has been burdened by the cold white stuff... But the temps have been mostly above zero... But my trailer now measures 54 feet long, I'm gonna have to dig out my tail lights (again) before getting on the road again this afternoon.

    Niw its time to crawl into the rack.

    No snow here either. But I do have a hole in my snow plow that I must weld up this summer
