The car in the ditch was pulled out Sunday afternoon the rescue crew (Her brother and a couple friends) arrived around 12;30 or so ,and after a bit of digging and a broken tow strap they had her out and on the road.  We did not see any damage so no harm no foul. If I had to guess, maybe someone was a bit tipsy and slept it off good before tackling the stuck ride. Being that nobody got hurt and no real damage was done who cares. I'm happy everyone involved made it home OK in the end , and the dogs had something new and interesting to bark at for a day .  

    It has been winter like around here, we got a couple doses of snow and things are a bit slick in spots with the added benefit of snow filled ditches . About 1;30 this morning the Dogs started freaking out . It was not the usual "Oh boy I heard a mouse fart" bark , it was the alarm bark. I looked out and saw someone in the ditch across the road. : ( Well I donned my clothing ,tied on my boots strapped on a pistol and put on a jacket went out and checked in with them. It was a young lady from near by she had called her dad and was waiting for him. He finally arrived ,and picked her up. They left the car in the ditch and will presumably fetch it from its resting place sometime in the near future.

Here we are it is December now , and I still have 70 hours of vacation to use up. The Maintenance crew has to show up during the plant shut down over the Christmas holidays and knock out a couple projects and some of the more time consuming P.Ms .So I decided to take Wednesdays and Thursdays off The boss didnt want me to use it all up at once because we are a bit short handed and training a FNG . So my month will consist of two day work weeks !I have no real plans but am sure I can find something to fill the time.
