Hay!! |
| Description: |
Id gone out to put air in the tires on my wifes 2001 Stratus R/T(the five speed) and went up to Davidson Rd to check the signal. While I was there, the radio burped, and the next thing I saw, the signal had gone red southbound. Good sign, I thought. It was; the 181 was rolling north toward me behind the now common mix of CP and KCS power, seen across a field of hay bales. |
