It seems we have seven who have any interest at the moment in a July GTG, I've set the date for the last Saturday the 25th.

Seems like another quiet summer night here in the chapter.

I guess I'm working the wrong shift, seeing all the 'good mornings.'

Hi there Pete:

I feel like the Maytag Repairman, sitting here minding the store (CT Chapter), haven't been getting much traffic not even the just looking types.

That's pretty cool, Dave. I bet you're excited.

I feel like that when the store I work at opens up for the year. When it opens there's maybe a dozen customers a day. And it's open like 10-6 so it gets BORING. But at least I'm getting paid. I ended up doing a LOT of sweeping last year.

Then once we got apples in around mid-September through mid-October it was a madhouse. I couldn't even get a minute to run (literally) to the bathroom to go pee. I had to wait for the big boss to check in and lighten the register up a little so I could get her to take over for a minute. Absolutely brutal. Lines 10 people long non-stop.

Pete once the economy turns around the station here should get a dispatch about twice a day over the summer season.

One dispatch for the lunch hours and another dispatch for the dinner hours.

Still that would only be one run per shift per day.

Hey, Brian. I'm about to head off to take a shower and go to sleep.

Gotta get the mower unloaded from the 6.0 and get the trailer on so we can head up to N. Franklin for more goodies tomorrow.
