    Depends on if the showers at the J are working tomorrow morning or not, lol. Going to be rolling probably around 630.

    Well, I purchased a car a little out of my league and now I'm finding a lot of insurance companies won't even insure it. The few that will, they command a pretty penny for that privilege. Funny thing, my old 1974 Ford pickup is half the price to insure in Texas as it is in Kansas but the BMW is more than double the price. It's getting plated and insured in Kansas for the time being and I won't have to put the mufflers back on and remove the window tint for the stupid state inspection. Failed that today too..... The only thing that p$$$$s me off about Kansas is their stupid personal property tax on motor vehicles. I laugh when someone from out of state moves to Kansas, goes out and buys a new car then gets to the courthouse and finds out they need another $500+ to pay for the personal property tax on the vehicle.

    Yeah, I'm starting to look in Oklahoma, just north of the river and west of the Worlds Largest Casino "Experience". My family (I own the surface, my dad owns everything under it) owns 40 acres just west of Arapaho but other than the oil and natural gas wells on that land it's pretty much worthless and in the absolute middle of nowhere, no water (salt disposal well ruined that) and the ground doesn't perc for septic. However it has allowed my family and friends to register boats in Oklahoma and avoid the aforementioned Kansas personal property taxes, well that and due to the way we lived when I was younger I'm pretty sure those steel stallions bobbing their heads day and night make a pretty good paycheck for my dad. At one time there were at least 12 boats registered to that mail box out there on the road and I'm 110% confident not a single one had ever been down that dirt road lol.

    Well,

    When you are divorced, that is a great plan.

    I agree with Shooter time to head to the best side of the Red River.

    Ya know, it ain’t the prettiest place on the planet, and most of the roads are terrible, but it’s still a good place to live, in my opinion.

    I'm with truckdad, that looks like Stockton. Was that you getting on 580 around 1 PM today? I was hammering it for Canoga Park where I have just been told that the appointment time on the BOL doesn't matter, they will unload me@10 & no earlier.

    I have a 10 PM appointment in downtown L.A.
    and a 10 PM reload appointment in Irwindale. Gonna be a long night.
