Road Trip - asking for help

[Raider Bill]

Wish I was going to be there to meet you but not in the cards. Johnny 2 Tanks'll be there though. ;D

Well, gang, I made it!
Murphy's rules of combat were in full effect throughout the trip, which made for a very interesting run!
Left Tuesday around noon, heading to Amarillo. Rolled in there about 1AM, and passed out after me and wiener dog grubbed on cheeseburgers and Jim Beam (After being done for the day).
Wednesday, Rolled out for OKC, anticipated stopping near Ft. Wayne AR, but got a call from my best bud Davey, a trucker for CR England, who had been rerouted to Sacramento, and was approaching Knoxville when he called. I pushed it hard, and we were able to link up Thursday morning near Brownsville, TN, and set a spell.
Dave and I are best buds, 2 of a group of 3 of us. Spent a few extra days with #3 in our crew earlier in the week, and felt blessed that Dave would make a point of linking up with me on the road.
Spent that night somewhere just north of Bristol, VA, and made it to my folks this evening after the final brutal day on the road.
Raider Bill, I'll be looking you up soon, as I totally fell in love with that area driving through there.
It's where I'd love to live and raise kids. We'll talk soon.
Everyone else, I thank you so much for your help, guidance, wisdom, and support through my trying times.
I'm unloading over the weekend, and hope to get my blades sent out on Tuesday for sharpening, unless anyone knows who sharpens here in the area. Have about 30 blades that need to be done...
Good night!
Dave

Dave,

Just saw this thread.  Glad you made it O.K.  Beautiful country.  I spent 4 years on a job in Mehoopany, PA, about an hour down 267 from Binghamton.  Used to shop the farm supply store in Vestal on a regular basis for stuff we couldn't get locally.

As I recall,  first week of October, the leaves should be absolutely knock out gorgegous right now.  Post us some pix of the leaves if you get a chance !

What an adventure of a day!
When I finally got rolling this morning, I was able to link up with Jim (jdtuttle) over in Candor, and chat a spell while dropping blades off for sharpening at Mr. Earl's place.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The members of this forum are by far and large the finest people on the planet.
I'll go through fire to help any one of y'all if I can when you need me.
Mr. Jim, it was a huge pleasure to meet you today and chat a while.
Thank you so much for turning me on to Mr. Earl's sharpening services. I'm sure that we'll be seeing a lot of each other in the future!
Dave
PS - now, off to a REAL homemade s'ketti dinner at the neighbors! The "gravy" has been simmering all day long! WOOHOO! Fat & Happy I will be!
