7/3/2008-One job today
Hello my many friends. This is going to be a rather brief update, because I want to get to bed pretty much right now. I want to read my book a little before I go to sleep, and if I wait too long the Fair One will want to turn out the lights on me.
Anyhow, we had one little job today, hauling a tug from Northlake down to Foss where we tied it up. It wasn't our smoothest job ever, I misjudged a turn and had to back up a little bit and try it again. The important thing in a situation like that is that you find someone to blame, and fortunately I have a culprit in mind. It was all Heather's mom's fault. She was riding along in the 8 today, and must have somehow caused me to goof. That's the only plausible explanation.
Despite Heather's mom's best efforts we got our tow secured without any further trouble, and called it a day. Well, not entirely I guess. I went down to Heather's house afterward, picked up the new chickens, and brought them back here. The broken down mercedes is still in the shop for a service, so I loaded them into the little bicycle trailer and towed them home that way. I got a lot of funny looks hauling a bicycle trailer loaded with live poultry through downtown, but it worked. Not to mention we saved some money on fuel too. These days that's a big consideration.
Okay, well I'm going to go to sleep now. I'll pull a photo out of the archives for you. Talk to you tomorrow, Brian
