    Showed up on time. Easy 20 minute load, is so far 2.5 hrs. Hmmm. Should be sleeping. Running backroads to avoid Atlanta. 50 miles shorter. No choice.

    I talk to my trucks and cars the problem starts when they talk back. Usually something loud banging and clanging with the occasional explosion.

    Lol. Just looking at the route for my next run. From Johnson city TN, p/u in Surgoinsville Tn. Run through Bean Station, Tazwell, right through the gap, then up 25E to Corbin. Another trip, no good way to get there. Finals in Liberty In. Should be a very scenic trip. 20k of forgings. Never had a load of forgings that wasn’t 40k+. Hopefully it’s only 20k.

    You really need to do something about that — My quarterly check in or thereabouts— been down in the Land of Dave and the OM recently and escaped unscathed and don’t think I seen neither, except maybe the OM was on the prowl outside the Elks Lodge in Wickenburg last Tuesday, but I could be wrong

    Farmers Almanac saying for the NW 1/4 of the U.S., minus the coastal regions, mostly near or slightly above normal temps, and precipitation slightly below or near normal for this entire winter.

    Strong Thanksgiving-time snow for this region. Winters coming.
