Who got to play in the ICE this weekend!!!!
Sure have been getting my share of the bad weather this year, but I would have to say my P/U in Tulsa had one of the higher pucker factors so far!!
  Six hours after my P/U I was in Mississippi and it was 67 degrees. Gotta love this job. :withstupid:

I get to skip winter this year. I have been off sense late aug. for knee surg. and on the 22nd of this month get to do it again. Id rather be working, this work comp doesn't pay [email protected]

We played too....have pics not surehow to post em on here??
We had to have 6000 lbs of ice removed so we could get into NM legal....good thing too, because we would not have melted before AZ and there were a bunch of guys at the AZ scales beating off ice :shock: tootie[/img]

Moments like this, I'm glad I'm not on the road at the moment. I don't mind snow, but ice... yeah, no thanks... I'm content to watch the icicles on my porch instead of on my rig...

We had a little bit of sleet out on the deck last night!!! Tues. we are forcasted for a little sleet mixed with snow. Probably won't even stick, but you can bet they'll be shutting highways down.
People down here can't drive when it's clear and dry. Add a few patches of Ice, and for some reason. drivers decide to slam on their brakes.
