Zone 6B or 7 can't decide
I do not like going to town, and I really don't like food shopping. I go once a month. If my DH is in town he will pick up salad or what ever.
I did get ginger and carrots. I will get them in a jar to ferment on Thur.
I know exactly how you feel about going into town. I am not lying, I took my wife to Walmart last night. We counted 3 separate times I should have gotten in a accident but didn't. Because I was paying attention and quick to mash the brakes. I could detail each one of the three separate incidents, but I won't. But I will ask: Are they giving out drivers licenses in boxes of Fruit Loops now?

Jesus is Lord and Christ 🙏❤️🇺🇸

You probably have more time behind the wheel, pulling a heavy trailer than I do. But please be careful. Check the trailer brakes, anticipate stops, turn a little wider than usual, nice and steady is the way to go. Who care if it takes 10 or 15 more minutes to get there.

I eased down here, no hurry. I’m not real experienced at trailers, my husband was top notch and could back a trailer on a dime. I gave it over to him, why mess with perfection? Over the last 25 years I can only think of one time I pulled a trailer. Backing one is a challenge but I’m not terrible at it. Kinda proud of myself and I know BJ would be too.

When I got here yesterday and unhitched the trailer, the safety chains were oily. I looked under the truck and it was all oily. Crap. Dripping under the engine. I drove it to the front, killed it and popped the hood for it to cool. A friend came over and the power steering resivoir was empty, still had steering,pump wasn’t whining so pump wasn’t out.

Son got here after dark, hitched up gooseneck and backed his 1989 F250 diesel Lariat off, drove my truck on. Diesel was pouring out. My truck is sick.

He’s taking me and truck home this morning, will drop truck at repair shop. They can get to it next week. :(

Good morning all. That sucks about your truck Baymule! Glad you are safe though.
So, my friend went into labor last night. I’m anxiously awaiting to hear if little man is here or not yet. If y’all would say a prayer I’d appreciate it.
