Shoot I get all the pissed off rush rush people on my way home or the idiots that think the speed limit is 70 when its 55, had some girl in a car identical to the one I daily drive right now pass me on the road on the way home going up what I call the interstate and I paced her doing close to 75 working her way up to 80 at one point. Kinda sad really. Wish I could take the back roads but with hunting season coming I am not getting in the path of the dear if I can help it.

Makes me glad I miss rush hour traffic. That is the only real advantage to working until midnight. Shawn when I worked at the cemetery it was easier to drive to work instead of riding a bike there. BEsides no easy place to lock a bike up there because the shop was filled with equipment.

Thats the good part about being up at 3:50 in the morning, no traffic at all, 4:50 am you would think half the town is going to work, its crazy how many cars are out there. But when I get up its almost empty the whole way to, its just the way back sucks big time with traffic. either being idiots or just wanting to go faster than the 60 I go.

Couldnt do that Shawn. That was parked behind the dump truck. And there was not much room in the bldg we had for a shop.And couldnt put it front of teh dump truck because it would block the path of our John Deere Gator.

Lock that thing to the fence there, the dead ain't gonna steal it and the living sure won't because they will think some dead fellow owns it.

They would steal it in my area without thinking twice about it. And only fence we had was the wrought iron fence on top of the brick wall. EAsier to drive teh truck.And the truck has A/C.

Thats no fun Shawn. I get to order a tent on payday. That will be about 500 bucks for the tent. Depending on what shipping will cost I might go and pick it up myself. Company is located in West Virginia.
