I am getting a quote on buffing out the rust blemishes and getting the van a new paint job..It'll be like new from the outside and look real good......so I'll hold off on that stripe for awhile...;)

At the Port Authority @ the Utah/Wyoming state line 80E. Enroute to Load1 with 2 loads heading to Canada from Ogden, Utah. In the middle of a bad winter storm. Lightning, over 60 mile an hour winds, snowing (snowing is hard so maybe it is sleet) .
I hate all these winter storms I keep finding, I guess that is what you get in winter. Oh well, can't wait till spring!
