reporting in from a new location. fed from wraps(carne asada for me and sonoma chicken for the ex-california girl) made on site. shopped for groceries and now sucking up free electricity at wholefoods on abrahms in big d. thats d for dripping. not as hot as the formula one race at the cotton bowl i worked down here in 1985. that was hot and no chance of breeze in and around the cotton bowl.

I Will be in Charlotte for the weekend ,awaiting my Mon. Morning Del.
what to do in Charlotte ?

the good news for all of you ,is that Christmas season started early this year ,my OTR carrier is hauling gift junks from china already .
looks like consumer spending will be up this coming holyday season ,which is always good for transportation drivers.

You might be a little late with the Christmas gifts made in China. In 2007 the nearest Wal Mart to me cleared out the Garden\Patio shop, and had Christmas decorations including fake trees in it's place on Labor Day weekend.:rolleyes:
