While we are running around near Little Rock we will keep an eye out for you. I know that will be a little bit of a hike for you on a lawnmower but we will still watch for you. Seriously thought our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wife.

Hi Dave! Glad you are here and going to share some of your wisdom with us. You will be great addition to the forums, glad you are not a guest anymore!

This all reminds of going into New Orleans last year where all the signs where gone and the business was set up temporarily else where. Lots of patience required and a good GPS as the cell phone didn't work down there either.

dieselphreak2K Keep us posted on how your trip turns out. You are a lot braver then we (I) would be!

Terry and I have been having fun with this one and we differ on opinions. 1. the number of members of a group or organization required to be present to transact business legally, usually a majority. 2. a particularly chosen group.

Just ask Terry you did not have an agreed upon quorum for any purposes of voting.

Wow India I had no idea we could cause our own red lights. I know of one place we get a red light every time. When we first started we where over weight and had to move the load to get legal. Every since that time two years ago we get a red light at that scale. Thanks for posting your findings.

I would also suggest you call to see what is happening. We very seldom get a red light.

LOL Next time by gosh we will remember out manners!! One of these days we are going to catch up with you again.

We have also not had problems in our "little truck". We have found most not all big truck drivers to be helpful they are no different then we are. We have had expediters snub us along with big truck drivers. But, when Bob pulls out his ladder to work on light he also becomes the most popular...

We have friends that where caught with a detector. They where doing a little below the speed limit but the highway patrol pulled up next to their truck and then backed off and got behind them and pulled him over. As he says he learned a very important lesson with a huge fine attached...

Is there any other way besides the Microwave?

Terry I just have to let you know you should start your own hints and tips!! I tried this, following your suggestion and my gosh I had amazing results. I believe though in the future I will have to keep the freezer space for food. Keep up the good work! We did consult with the NASA and MIT...

Broom that sure sounds like what we need for the front of the truck. Both of us also like to wear our socks driving so I like the floor to be as clean as possible. Sounds like a good investment. We had a Pergo floor in the sleeper area of our truck, which replaced horrible black carpet. Bob...

We handle it different depending on the situation. If the delivery is on the weekend we usually ask when making our departure call to have them contact the customer to confirm delivery. If we are delivering in the middle of the night we usually let it ride. If we get to the customer and they...
