The Demolition Derby was on 169 by the Ferry Bridge and there was another near Lakeville. Glad I was home!<br />Love, MomVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-57732222711762719312014-02-16T08:17:25.056-06:002014-02-16T08:17:25.056-06:00I love listening to Broadcastify.You can get the s...I love listening to Broadcastify.You can get the storm warnings before the are on tv.And it's fun listening to whats happening in the area.

I always slow down to at lest 5 to 10 below the posted speed.

His eyes glazed over, a huge smile appeared on his face and he described the windfall of the event. <br /><br />He stayed up for 36 hours and slowly wandered up and down the interstate. He charged $50 to pull a car from a ditch and the business was good. <br /><br />I'm sure he's long gone by now. The business was replaced by a convenience store two decades ago and if his business acuity held, he made a bundle and lived happily ever after.
