I trailered a towable man lift (bucket lift) from Georgia to New York. The thing that made it eventful is that I had to drive my truck. My 2017 Chevy 3500 HD service truck (with only 31k miles) is not my Tesla. I have grown very accustomed to the Tesla self-driving, navigation and general hi-tech luxury. The truck, although I am very fond of my truck, is stressful and expensive to drive compared to the Tesla. Being on the farm alone has been an eye opener.

I am in the middle of loading the truck with radio treasures. Duane and I are headed to the Horseheads/Elmira Hamfest today. It is foggy and dark out there. I just rebuilt my computer OS again! I am getting the kinks out of it and loading all the stuff you get used to.
Community Speechcraft I have been too busy to blog. I am starting a six week speech class this week. I am catching up on my homework. I went to a leadership meeting in Waterloo this weekend. I found water in the tractor fuel again. I have some guy coming to pick up the flail mower to modify it. It is budget time at work. I fixed the electric toothbrush yesterday. We made some awesome haddock primavera Saturday for my Sister, Cousins, and Mom. I have to get the tire fixed on the truck today and take the old dishwasher to the dump.
