good morning everybody again,<br /><br />boy, have i every had a morning so far...a little background.  I live on a very narrow <b>country road</b>.  Hardly wide enough for 2 normal size cars to meet.  You get 2 full-size pickups or huge SUV&#39;s then somebody has to slow down and move over, and there is no shoulder, just the ditch.<br />for example, sometimes I will meet the schoolbus and I will have to come to a complete stop and get off the road as much as I dare.  Plus the schoolbus drives down the middle of the road anyway... <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":laugh:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> <br />PLUS since this still the country alot of people have freerange poultry, ducks, and sometimes a stray horse or 2 might get out&#33;  HAHA...but that is another story<br /><br />what i am leading up to is my adventures driving this morning....<br /><br />going to school and dropping off is ALWAYS a nightmare.  <b>SOME</b> people just do not have a clue as to the proper drop off procedure and <b>etiquette</b>&#33;   <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wink2:" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> <br /><br />then on my way home I round a curve on my road and there is a HUGE dozer/rear roadgrader/ I think it even had a bucket on it...combo. tractor thing in the middle of the road - he must had had it in overdrive and doing 25 MPH&#33; I had to take to the ditch.  Plus this is trash day so the folks had there trash cans on the side of the road...hope they don&#39;t mind a little red paint on them, I might had got a little close to them.  I was in hubby&#39;s truck.  Ok ~ I get pass that misshap and carry on...<br /><br />the people across the road from my parents keep some chickens.  for some crazy idea they allow 1 rooster, 1 chicken, and 1 white duck to roam.  This crazy animals will cross the road and come into my parents yard.  You go down to the road to get the mail and they will follow you back.  sometimes you have to stop to let them cross the road...well,  today was one of those days...I really felt like...well, never mind&#33;<br />ok, I get home and in a bit, Hubby calls.  He wants me to bring him his drill and radio to work. Great, like he doesn&#39;t have a drill at work already but he wants <b>HIS</b>.  OK, so here I go again...<br /><br />the people down the road from us have a big pond.  They keep a bunch of ducks, geese, and I don&#39;t what else...and in the winter there is always Canadian Geese on his pond.  And the people across the road from him have horses.  From some reason all of the ducks and friends like to cross the road to go to the horses pasture...must be better bugs over there...don&#39;t know.  anyway, it is like a school crossing when all the ducks and  friends are crossing the road...single file and they always have the same leader when I have seen them.  You HAVE to stop for this parade&#33;  HONKING at the parade does not help&#33;<br />Today I got to see the parade.  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /> <br /><br />Ok, now I have finally made it to the main road that will lead me to the interstate.  doing pretty good until a semi pulling a &quot;wide-load&quot; flat bed trailor pulls out in front of me (on-coming) and swings wide so I have to shut it down and take to the side of the road AGAIN&#33;, at least this road has shoulders....and this guy was hauling a bulldozer...I really am getting spooked now.   <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /> <br /><br />ok, I get to hubby&#39;s work and give him his drill and radio...tell him to use them in good health and I head home.  I do good until I get on my road again...top over the hill and what do I meet in the middle of the road????<br />the Garbage Truck<br /><br />I am home now.  I am supposed to go back to town later.  I will have to think about it...A LOT...<br /><br />HI to everybody and have a nice day...I think, no, I KNOW it is 5:00 somewhere... <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cool2:" border="0" alt="cool.gif" /><br /><br /><br /><div align='center'><img src="http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk293/55ChevyMann/itisfiveoclocksomewhere.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /></div>
