Ya gotta be careful

[newbury]

I learned to drive a semi truck when paper logs were how you managed your driving hours. I don't want to suggest that any truck driver would falsify a paper logbook, but I am sure pages were lost and had to be replaced.

When I hitched from Vermont to California (with 2 friends) and back in '73 we got to Ohio and were picked up by a semi with a cab who was going to San Diego. That's when I learned drivers NEVER FALSIFY A PAPER NOTEBOOK. And NEVER LOSE PAGES. Out of either logbook

We all need to recognize and be careful for ourselves and others because none of the 3 excuses I had was worth hurting someone or myself.

Yes, we have to be careful. Which basically means full of care. Care for others as well as ourselves. I am so lucky that I didn't hurt anybody. Nevermind me, other folks are way more important.

Been there, years ago, at about 3:00 am. As all rural folk know, falling asleep is always reported as “I was dodging a deer” or “dodging a dog,” or other animal as appropriate. BTW those rumble strips on the pavement are a great idea.
