    In addition, if you take a day off before or after a holiday, you don't get holiday pay here either.

    Or. Salary and we just don't get ANYTHING holiday related.

    Morning all,

    I almost hate giving a siterep, 64 and Sunny right now, cold front moving in this afternoon, rain and 40s and 50s the next couple of days.. Not nearly what some of you guys are dealing with!!

    Another observation from the trip..... All the hunters on here were posting about their trips, from Nashville to Marion Ill, I counted and lost track around 50 so lets just say no less than 50+ deer carcass on the highway!! And I mean big deer, in Florida the largest are like the size of a great dane!! Unbelievable waste of meat.. Some were even field dressed and everything, a little scattered but wow!! Never saw a vehicle by any of them though.. There has got to be a body shop up there that specializes in pulling pieces parts of critters out of the grill work!!

    Anyways... Y'all have a great day, off and doing a rather large honey do list today, supposed to be a recovery day... FOR THE WIFE MAYBE!!

    RJ

    The snow storm missed us. We have the after storm cold and wind.


    Wife got an early start Sunday morning. Some slippery spots on I-39 between Tomahawk and Merrill. She missed the heavy traffic.


    @kamakazie_1 Happy Birthday, ,,belated

    4 years ago yesterday, on my way to work....Driving an '04 Dodge 3500 Quad cab, long bed Hemi/auto gas hog-of-a-truck.....When I got plowed by a Nissan Altima. Knocked the rear axle all the way under the front seat. Total loss. I'd already had my eye on the above truck, which would later that day become my 5th Toyota.

    Recently, it got a Detroit TruTrac in the front diff. Still to do; Snorkle, Gas tank skid, Swing out spare tire carrier, roof rack on topper, and Sport hood that's leaned up against work bench....

    Planning on being finished by 5 year anniversary!

    Not much on LED-ing non-essential's....Hood may or may NOT end up on truck. Probably will just because I have it. If it happens, it will signify the last part to the puzzle. ('cept for 35's which will be the ultimate end mod.) Notice, no ditch lights, rock lights, etc.....

    I have seen several done, though to be honest only one was actually worth while the guy lives out in the willy wags in the mid west wide open country and pitch black at night. He put a wide beam in his to be able to see further out on the side of the roads hoping to avoid the need for ops checking his bumper and armor :}. The rest meh no real need but not my truck. I have a sport and that scoupe really does get you with the sun reflection if you are headed just right into the sun ,, well it does if your 5'8" lol
