Concerning all those trucks hauling stuff......hopefully those are AMERICAN trucking companies and not MEXICAN.

We dined at Wendy's yesterday close to I-70 and could see bunches of truckers hauling a suprising number of new vehicles plus a lot of steel. Hard to tell what might have been in the closed trailers (except in Sam's Club, Wal-Mart and KROGERS)

I don't know if I mentioned , JOHN, that the grain bin they erected down at the neighbors does have 6 or 7 rings.....will try and get a snapshot of it and maybe you can determine if it is a very big one. Looks rather small to my un-trained eye. I figure they were filling it with soy beans 'cause they just got done harvesting his bean fields.

Good morning, gang. Moving slow today. Hubby got switched to an overnight shift now and it's exhausting for both of us. He's tired 'cause he's working 12 hour shifts and I'm exhausted because I don't sleep well without him here and I don't get a break from the babe. LOL. Going to take a nap later. Sounds like a plan. Good luck at the doc's Carol and Kelster!

Good morning ROSE.....good news that hubby still has work in spite of the fact it is night shift. I hated that shift and did it for over 16 years. Always felt like I missed a lot of the kids growing up. Wife did a fantastic job raising our four boys during that time.

Good morning from Phoenix! Starting out the day in the lower 40's. Dog will have to wait a while to get his walk.
