    Big Payload

    Took the second part of three loads of a grain bin to the yard yesterday. Got a whopping $35 for 1400 lbs. This tin actually fits in the $10/ton catagory but they hate to pay such a low price so I got $50/ton. Can't haul much of a load on a 20ft trailer when the bin is crumpled. Took alot of torching to get it to fit. Loaded it wrong way around. Created a huge funnel for wind but had hoped to load the other half the opposite direction and then didn't have room. Hard to keep slick round tin on a trailer. Bonus was $10.50 and it was a 80 mile round trip. Have one more load to go tomorrow and it's already loaded. Just slightly better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick but "what the hey"..........I'm retired. Delivered six dozen eggs to some friendly gals in the process.
