    Not on your life.

    The old mower is 14 year old craftsman. This one mows it about an hour quicker.

    I last saw my car on 2/8 it was running then
    but probably not by next time I see it
    Patty and I are officially homeless now too
    the family we rented the house to after they lost theirs in hurricane sandy
    cant afford to rebuild with all the changes in flood plain zoning
    flood insurance was going to be $13500 or another $100000
    for a house on stilts rated for a hurricane
    so they are buying ours

    sounds like you need to get back in your truck to get some rest Rocks

    I'm anal about keeping up on the maintenance of my car. I keep the oil changed and tires rotated on a schedule. Without my car, I don't have a job.

    I know this driver is good about checking tires, lights, etc. He's always the one who ends up getting the trailers that need something done, after somebody else just dropped it for the next guy. With the temps heating up this past week, we're having lots of blowouts on the trailers. Course, I don't know how the drivers check, whether they just kick the tires, look at them, thump them, or actually use a gauge.

    Off to the south for me. Gonna be another busy day *sigh*. It's only Thursday and I'm anxious for the weekend to get here again.

    Sitting at the home 20, pondering the most important question a man's ever asked himself: Should I drink one more beer or just go to bed?

    I was in Jamestown NM one cold morning, awhile back. About the time I hop out to do my pretrip, a gal running one of your wagons opens up the curtains, gets out, and heads over to the coffee bar. So... some time passes getting things finished up on my side (hefty slug o' coffee at this point) she gets back. Walks to the right side of her tractor, and kicks the steer tire. Looks at it. Walks to the left side of her tractor. Looks at the steer tire. Get's in, fire's it up, and is out of the parking lot before I have my log updated.

    Different strokes for different folks. :biggrin_25523:
