Good morning Illinois,

Everything is shut down here in Washington state also! I wonder how long the toilet paper craziness will continue?

Good evening Illinois and Ford Truck enthusiasts, Ken, Tim, and Sean!

Had a 40° day with no sun, may be tomorrow.

Another person in my area tested positive for the virus today taking the total to 4.

My wifey and I went out and picked up our drugs. The streets are empty, everyone must be staying home.

We walked by the shelving where the Depends are kept. Not a one on the shelf.

The streets are empty of vehicles. Maybe that's a good thing? LOL

I drove 25 miles to save on gas $2.29 locally, vs. 1.89. No spring break trips this year!

Yeah it was only 40° here today. Will need at least 70° to be good.

I’d take 60° so I can relax as I change motor oil in the driveway. 32° wasn’t working for me today.
