Hahahaha...just keep smiling. Only consolation is that you know it'll change eventually.......typical Arkansas weather. As long as it's not that freezing rain/black ice.

It is a full moon, isn't it?? At least you're not riding the tail end of the train doing switch duty during our forecast flood.....

The joys/pitfalls of experience, the company thinks your worth more wiggling sticks (running a locomotive) than making those high powered decisions about where to go (conductor). On a crappy day I'm happy to be in the cab where it's warm & dry...but when it's 75F and crystal blue skies, I envy the conductor. I'll take back have the mean things I said about Mother Nature. Today and tomorrow (other than the cool temperatures) will be down right awesome. And it's December...so lows in the 20/30 isn't that uncalled for.

Looks like it'll be a busy day tomorrow for me...so Merry Christmas folks!

Guess everyone is still busy playing with their new toys. Scott, I thought of you Wednesday while leave Dad's over in Maumelle. Some clown in a '08-'10 F250 decided he needed to show me just how awesome his truck was. Lets just say the truck had been modified...considering the amount of smoke coming out of the back of that DPF equipped truck. It was a light grey extended cab/short box that said something like "Royce Dozer" on the side. Not sure if he felt he needed to prove something or if he saw my truck going down the interstate that day headed home from the GTG and wanted to show me he could do that as well.

For those of us still stuck at the salt mine...there was two Monday's this week. There should be a law against that.
