    Awesome set up, those lads are in it big time. We, on the other hand are a tiny outfit. 3 guys, 1 chopper, 2 trucks. All of the farms in this area are small operations who really can't afford the $$$$$$$ to do it on their own.

    I'd say most IPA's are not good. Too many over do the hoppiness. IMHO, too hoppy IPAs are giving beer a bad name. Now the good IPA's those are really good. Dogfish head 60 minute IPA is very good, as well as at least a couple IPAs from Three Floyds.

    Up early for our walk. Looks nice outside. campinspecter had a checkup yesterday and everything looks good for him. Another month before he can do anything really heavy but now he can do more things without me hovering and squawking about it. I will have to learn to stop doing it as it has become a habit over the last few weeks.

    Walked into Costco yesterday and besides all the Halloween stuff is an aisle full of Christmas stuff. It is way too early for that even though I have been Christmas knitting and shopping already, I don't need to see all the decorations for sale this early.

    We were at Costco over the weekend and saw the same thing with Christmas decorations. We thought it way too early as well. Let us at least get past Halloween.

    I think i managed to get around 2 hours of sleep by the time my alarm went off at 610am.
    Worked 7am until 6pm.

    We are winding down for the night, i'll get some pictures posted, need to get them off my phone.

    Yeah, we have changed things up a bit for 2018.
    This has all been planned now for several months.
    And when i mean several, i mean like in the fall of 2017 i said hunny, lets move
    to indy. January 2018 i found out that the both of us were going to be first time
    parents. This is something that ive wanted for 4 or 5 years now, probably closer
    to 5 and a half.

    Its all been amazing.. Very stressful for sure. Spending 5 days or so at a time away
    from my dogs and my expecting wife was very testing. We were fine, but it tested
    our strengths emotionally for sure.

    I cant explain the feeling, coming home from a long days worth of work to your
    newborn baby boy and your wife that youve been with for 10 years strong, and
    still going strong... Its incredible! The feeling of just being able to say that i have
    officially started my own family is just through the roof amazing to me. This is me.
    Im having so much fun already.

    Each day i am noticing more and more activeness and movements out of our boy.
    It is by far the coolest thing in the world, by far. I love being a Dad. I know my love
    for my boy's Mother will never change as long as the level of loyality we have for
    eachother never wonders off. Im with my bestfriend and she is amazing.

    New job is towing.. Better though compared to the last gig, i guess.
    Im actually bummed a bit with my new job.
    Well, here it is.

    So i landed another towing job, its literally 7am until.. 4ish maybe 8ish pm.
    All depends.. I pretty much work as late as i want to an extent.. I usually turn
    11hour days, have been known to crank out a 12 or 13 hour day though also.

    Im no longer on call or working an hourly shift at night. Im no longer dealing
    with cranky people who have gotten into an accident or someone who is rude
    and mouthy because they got busted either drunk driving or driving without
    insurance, you get the point. So i no longer deal with all that mess.. Im now
    driving a flatbed tow truck around central-ish indiana picking up dealer vehicles
    that are being put up for auction. Like trade ins with high mileage and what not.
    Thats all i do, all day. Driving around 400-600 miles a day and hauling anywhere
    from just 2 to maybe 10 or 11 cars within a shift, mostly 2 at a time with a flatbed.




    Im tired.
    Its bed time.
