We got some snow this week but I was gone. Drove a fire truck to Huston TX with Jimmy Jo. this last weekend. He drove one I did the other one. (To you that did not grow up in Hardwick. ((Jimmy Jo is from Hardwich Two years older than me)) He started the company that I drive for.) We left on Sun Morning and delivered the trucks Mon at 130 PM. Got a rential car and drove back. We were in Brandon SD Tue morn at 1000. We leave in the morning with him and another driver to deliver three trucks to Evensburg PA. We than drive back to Sioux Falls in a rential car. Rosie and Gizmo are keeping the house warm when I'm gone. Nothing else to tell you all as it is cool in the morning, warm in the afternoon and cool when the sun goses down. Carol S sent this on the e-mail side and it is true in many places so I have to pass it on. So what farmer would be saying any of the folling at a Sat night eating peanuts in the store? Kids you need to ask or mon or dad about the peanuts.
