Beautiful upper Pennsylvania

Scott says they finally got off the beaten path on this run and the area was beautiful in Northern Pennsylvania, skinny little crooked rood that went through hard wood forests. Wonderful, he is a passenger today and most of tomorrow as will have more hours tomorrow night sometime.

Says he has been seeing a lot of turkeys, wild not idiot type some in Wisconsin and some in Pennsylvania I think he said. What he really said was that Marcel's idea of pretrip inspection was if you turn the key and the engine runs it is fine, OMG. Scott said that if he was hurt or killed in an accident while with Marcel to sue the shit out of Werner for having "untrained trainers". Then raved for about 15 minutes about the idiotic things this dude does. He was out filling tires with air at the time and I asked why they did not just change them and he said Marcel did not feel they needed it but that the front tire, I do not think he mentioned left or right was illegal and if they ever got stopped they would stay stopped until they got it replaced. So now I feel really, really good about his taking this job and can rest easy at night. Jeez as if I do not imagine the worse when he does not call 4 times a day.

Good news I had lots of work today and kept busy and BETTER news Josh came by to get the playpen as they were going out of town and I got to see the kids. It has been ages since I have seen Jacob nonmanic, he was talkative but calm and happy looking. He asked if he could get out and then just accepted it when I said no. It was great. He just talked to me about going to Grandma Geraldines and playing that he was ironman and getting the mask. I of course have no idea if he got the mask or was planning on getting it. Rachel woke up and told me she was a princess when I asked if I could be queen she said no that Mommy was queen and I was a princess like her. Then she asked me what my name was, OUCH. Mollianna cried every time I looked into her carseat. Okay so I ran out there without combing my hair and it does stand on end being this short. She is really getting big but adorable as are her brother and sister. Anyway that made my day.

The truck is on the way to Springfield Ohio, Scott thinks there is a law that every state has to have a Springfield in it, anyway then they are at this point set to pick up a load and go to Las Vegas. But as he says if that does not change in the 12 hours or so that is left. Tomorrow.
