On another topic:

The first female is coming to our little town today.  She is giving a commencement speech (written by a gentlemen from Strawberry Point, a small town just down the road a piece)  at the local university.  I'm underwhelmed. 

Me?  I'm getting ready to leave town to go to Earlville to see a truck show.  My middle son is showing a Peterbilt cabover this weekend.  Should be fun.

Stay safe.

Have fun today.

Thanks for the funny comment to "Helen" who is my other (and much more vile) troll. Honestly, I burst out laughing. What a great way to start the day!

Adrienne.... Helen appears to have issues. My only regret is not signing off with "Love, Blue"

Glad you smiled.

Brock.... It was good. I should have gone last night and watched the truck rodeo and drank some beer. Ahhhh well. Next time. Watched the semi-tractor drag races today. Interesting.
