    Not many truckers on the road. God bless those that are knowing that they are essential workers. I hope that the people along the road realize the sacrifices they make to keep the nation supplied.

    To many memories, when I was an owner operator one if my routes took me the exact same way you travel... Minticello to Harahan La and the French Quarter..I remember 61 in Iowa and Mo when it was 2 lane all the way from I80 to St.Louis..... I remember when the Flying J in Mo was built... Thanks for the ride..

    Glad you made it safely. Today we were placed in a Shelter in Place order. We haven't been out of the condo for a week. We can food shop and walk on the sidewalk as the beach areas down here are ghost towns. My wife is immune compromised from cancer treatments so she can't shop. But we are safe and fine which is okay. And I get to watch you in action! Hooray!

    States getting shut down in March 2020 reminds me... My wife has been battling cancer, and we started driving from Central Michigan to Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, the day after Christmas, 2019. Stayed in Rochester a week at a time, over New Years, then a week in February. Finally, sometime in mid-March, we got a call on a Thursday afternoon asking if we could be there by Friday evening so that she could have a COVID test on Saturday morning, and then be quarantined for five days before surgery? So, we hit the road, and arrived in Rochester about 4:00PM, Friday. Checked into our hotel, and called the Cl8nic to let them know we were in town. Two hours later, they called back to say that your governor had just shut down the state, including Mayo Clinic, and we could go home! We were pretty bummed! Interesting trip back to Michigan too, as Illinois had shut down too! It was an adventure.

    I wonder if you sighed as loud as I did when you pulled into the driveway at the farmhouse. Always good to get back home. Definitely now with this pandemic. I'd be avoiding those drive-thrus and limit your shopping, sanitize lots. Home cooked, when you or Melissa does it beats drive-thru any day. :-)

      He may as well finish it and max out the value the markets are a bit wonky with everything that's going on in terms of loans and confidence as it relates to jobs from a potential buyer's perspective. But then again there may be a cash buyer sitting on some money looking to invest in real estate.
