    Hey Smitty. I not only love your vids I love your love for your dogs.
    I'm not a trucker but I was a long distance bus operator. I traveled in and out of most of the states you post in and out of but carried precious cargo, humans.
    I started when I lived in Massachusetts and carried mostly seniors across country on anywhere from 2 day to 6 week trips.
    Back then we had no GPS and I had to use maps. Imagine that, maps lol.
    I did it for about 10 years then went to line runs.
    Even with my precious cargo I still got tired after awhile and was very tired of being away from home.
    Would I ever give up those days? Not a chance. 46 states, hundreds of cities thousands of wonderful people, many whom I still remember today, 30 years later.
    You remind me of me, personality wise and love for animals.
    My best wishes to you and please keep up the good work and blogs.
    Take care, Mark Vinette, now a Florida resident

    Sometimes you make more money by not moving. Wear and tear, fuel and the chance of an accident are all avoided if rates are below your cost.

    Wow, my husband wouldn't do a flower bed for me. He'd just soon cut them down. He doesn't touch anything that's growing.😂😂. It will be nice when you get finished with it❤❤❤. Nice video Kurt and family.🎉🎉.

    When we were first married and had a nice sized yard. I planted vegetables towards the back of the yard .
    My husband was cutting the grass he went over everything and destroyed my plants I was quite upset

    Same problem herein California with the lumber. I even had a clerk step up and tell me I cannot sort the lumber, he won’t do that again I don’t think. I told HIM to sort and what to look out for. He wasn’t happy. This is the same store that ran out of sacks of concrete on the aisle. They told me they would get some more down with the fork lift, waited 15 minutes, no fork lift. Wandered around and found a bundled order going out the next day with about 20 bags. I tore the plastic wrap off and helped myself to the bags of concrete, told the clerk on my way out to replace them on the order when they get the pallet down off the top shelf. He was a little pissed. I did not care!
    Seems a though things change when you replace the word “we” with the word “you” in regards to the purchase of the tux. LOL Stay safe!

    You take the same approach to landscaping that my husband does. That's why I just spent the last two hours weeding my large front bed. If you get the weed centered, it's just going to grow the other direction. You make a good compactor. God bless.

    Yep I understand the flowerbed deal. I am the same way only it is ornaments and those stupid curled things that hold bird feeders. We have trees to put feeders in but no we need those post for me to mow around. Oh well such is life. Enjoy your work week lol. Tell those kids to be safe after prom and have a great time. God Bless your wonderful family.

    You guys don’t have subterranean termites do you? Our termite and bug guy said leave a clear zone so you can see foundation cement so you can easily inspect when you want. (And when they want) We put a spacer to keep dirt off cement and house/garage/ shed etc. we have to clear it out now and then because skunks, loose cats etc will root around planters and kick dirt and bark over the barrier.

    I like beards, gray hair does its own thing specially when is windy, the shorter the more manageable
    I'm sure you may have seen it, cardboard that piles up taking space can be hosed down and gets very tiny and easy to handle and fold down and dispose into the recycling bin

    A few years back….during January-February it was minus 30 to minus 40 like everyday. So I parked my truck and trailer….left it idling refilled said truck several times never moved further than that. Shop where I parked never left the truckstop (they did not need to-they were busy just fixing jelled up trucks and jumpstarts). Weather finally broke I went back to work. Best not working idea I’ve had in a loooong time.

I had to load in Chicago with a dry box for General Mills. I never went to Chicago if I did not have too. Sending you a e-mail for a good route. Going from I 65 to west

    Many many moons ago, I remember my one of my Proms. I think it was the senior prom. I rented a light blue jacket and black pants and all the trim. I was sharp that night. Shoes shined so you could see your face in them. Kids don't know how to shine shoes these day. They look stupid wearing tennis shoe with a Tux. Later on that evening while dancing on the big dance floor with a huge crowd, I made a wrong move and split the A out of my pants. The rest of the evening I had my jacket tied around my waste. So, no matter how the tux looks, most likely is it old as hell and been used many many times. lol
