Well it was dry enough for the Mule and I to take a trip over to Baton Rouge. Little rain on the way over. Had a good time and breakfast with some great truck guys. Had to end a bit early cuz standing in the parking lot in the rain,well seemed less than smart.

Ran into something on the way home. Took 90 mins to go 1.3 miles. Rain and humidity had me wondering if I should have gone in Whitey with AC. No issues with the Mule except tach quit working correctly. I made it, but it makes you wonder sometimes about manual trannies in circumstances like this. never saw what caused the tie up so I assume there was a bad accident that got cleared by the time I got thru.
