My shoveling is done until next time and the sun can take care of the rest.

We learned that anyone could go forwards and if they couldn't they didn't belong on the road which is why going backwards was the first thing to learn.

I almost bought the truck that I learned to drive, Dave Banman got sick and gave me a note that I could buy the truck and the 331 hemi with 4 spd in his shed for $500, this was in about 74 - 75, the truck was a 41 Dodge. His father decided to give the truck to a dealership in Morden instead and used the motor and transmission to fill the pit under Dave's outhouse. The oldman did this about a week before Dave died just to be an as****e as he didn't like my Mother, she was a non Mennonite divorcee in a strict Mennonite town.

It`s harder than it looks, with a short hitch is even harder.

Super Bee trains are super fun, I never did really learn how to do these.

I've never had the chance to try, might be fun as long as it was in an empty parking lot

Some leaves but mainly dirt spilled from plant containers by customers or employees. There is one employee that makes a lot of mess because she doesn't have to clean it up.. leaves it for night shift..

I wouldn't want anything to do with a super bee unless its a Plymouth car.

My Turkey was easy to catch as it only had one wing, being dead and in a bag helped, right now its soaking in pear juice.

Good morning everyone, it's looking more and more like winter has arrived. They said we were going to ease into winter this year and not likely see any snow until about the second week of November. I'd like to fire that bltch out of a cannon...lol

Happy Saturday Mornin'all. All my swelling is gone, feelin good. Off to Brandon for our first hockey game of the season. Leave @ 11am hopefully back by 7pm. Hoping for some reprieve from this crappy weather. We've only had a couple of nice days in the last month. Hope the new NAFTA agreement wakes up the transportation industry. It's been very tough since July, to get our trucks home with decent revenue. Have a great day, and Thanksgiving guy's.
