Well I just came through Minnesota,Illinois,Indiana,Ohio,Pennsylvania the last few days coldest was 5 degrees and high was 25 degrees.
Just part of the job this time of year.

I went to Atlanta today. Again. 3 times this week. Sat in the Coke dock for 3 hours with the sun shining through the cab. Had to put the AC on.

Well I'll be doing the same come Sunday I'll be in South Louisiana with temps getting close to 80 degrees and upper 70 throughout next week.
Enjoy your time with the family.

You folks from the south crack me up. If I wanted to sweat my balls off in 90+ degrees and 100% humidity from May to October I'd move south too. Funny, but I never get things like that from my friends in FL in July or August.
I lived in NJ most of my life, and I can tell you that it's not any hotter or more humid here in TN then it was in Bergen and Sussex counties in the summer time.
FL is a different story though. You couldn't pay me to live down there.

Do you drive a truck too?

I'm going out to shot now, it's 19 degrees
You should go to Chittenango Falls and get some cool ice shots of the falls later in the winter. Be careful climbing around though. It's beautiful around there.

Yes @donaldjledet drives a truck as well. He is what we call in this business a"paid tourist".
I couldn't handle driving a rig nowadays....too many restrictions....I drove when it used to fun.
Yea, the bullshit that you have to go through now days is unbelievable. The only reason I'm still doing it is that I get home every day and don't have to be out at all over night unless I want to.

I hear ya....and it is a decent paycheck....but you're right...and with the idiot drivers driving their $250,000 motor homes with no idea how big their MH's are, and blocking the left lane because they can....just too much crap....(I'm on a disability anyway, but still).....I feel for ya and still have drivers that I worked with calling me. They're a good bunch of folks.
