I've been down your way recently. I was at Wells Group in West Liberty earlier this week. Last week I was at Cornett Excavating in Hazard. I've been doing fine. Just work. No vacation, though my wife and kids went out west for 2 weeks. No tractor shows. No county fairs, tractor pulls, demolition derbys, or Church Festivals. So, I have a lot of home time if I'm not working. Though I have been fishing more this year!

They just officially cancelled Court Days in Mount Sterling. As far as my older neighbor knows, it is the first cancellation since WWII. It will be an impact on much of the community. Many civic groups, school clubs and artists base their annual budgets on Court Days.

Wesley, that truck is a beast. Glad you had a good trip. Speaking of beasts, how is the little beast doing?

Ken, shutdowns all across the state are having the same effect to a lot of Churches, local clubs and groups that need those fairs and festivals every year for raising funds. No tractor pulls, demolition derbys, and very few car shows.

Fantastic Friday morning Kentucky and crew. You realize you have been invaded by a bus load of Liquored up Truck people!
Better lock down the distilleries and breweries! You may experience a shortage if this bunch gets loose in there!

So, I have started a side business of making decals, etc. At the moment I am limited to 12" x 24" sizing but working towards a larger system once my shed gets here. John, you're welcome to spread my name, number, etc to the trucker folks you encounter for signage on their trucks, trailers, etc. (I also ship) I'm usually home/close by if you find yourself needing something on short notice as you pass by!

Some of the work I've did so far.

Good Morning Kentucky, Wesley and crew west of me! Saturday #1 went great and to bed early seeing how I was up early and drove 6 hours round trip to see the wife's parents and take her to the dentist.
Taco Tuesday is going well on this side of the border. Partly sunny and rains seem to be moving east well to the north of us!
Hope you had a great weekend and a good start to the week.
