We should get a bigger tractor, but Chuck says we wouldn't need one, if I got rid of the horses.

The goat path would of been smoother,boss estimated around 1,000 trucks a day run it grain,dirt,concrete,& rock trucks & probably over half are overweight,which I couldn't believe that would happen 😉 I'll bet ole HB ran legal all the time.

Today my girlfriend was taking her truck to get inspected and got pulled over for not having it inspected. She got a warning. When I told Chuck, he said he got fined for an expired inspection and it had just run out the day before. I asked him if he cried and got that's a dumb ? look. I reminded him of the time, I got pulled over for not wearing my seat belt. I didn't have an inspection sticker because the windshield had been replaced. He told me a couple of times to stop somewhere to get a new sticker, but I had been working late and nothing was open when I got off be work. So when I got pulled over, I thought for sure it was for not having a sticker so while talking to the officer, my voice cracked a couple of times because I knew Chuck was not going to be happy about it and I didn't like working over to pay fines. But he told me to buckle up and have a good day. I only went about a mile and he pulled me over again! I thought for sure a fine was coming and by the time he got to my window, I had lost it. The first time he pulled me off, I told him I thought I was going to be late for a Drs appt (first time to see him and didn't know exactly where his office was) so he stopped me the 2nd time to tell me to follow him, he knew be where the dr's office was. So not only didn't I get a fine, but I got a police be escort. My friend told me she started crying, too. So maybe if you get pulled over for being over weight, you should start crying.
