GARBAGE TRUCK BBQ

Sometimes I haul fill dirt to landfills around the

valley and Friday I was surprised to find that at

the Allied Waste Landfill out on SR 85 they had

this truck & trailer set up that had this BBQ grill

that is an exact replica of one of their garbage

trucks [except for the grill part of course] and

its about the size of a Dodge mini van .

They were serving hamburger's & smoked

sausage's free to all the commercial drivers

hauling into that landfill to say thanks because

without us including the garbage truck drivers

they would be out of business . I found out that

they go around to their different landfill sites

doing this and I thought that's pretty cool .

You may be wondering why would they need

dirt hauled into a landfill don't they just dig a

giant hole fill it with garbage and cover it with

the dirt they dug out of the hole , NO dirt has to

be hauled in because the garbage has to be

mixed with dirt as it is dumped this helps to

compact and stabilize the landfill site .

I have to say Kudos to Allied Waste Services ,

we [CDL drivers] appreciate being appreciated

especially when most people just think

were in their way .

MY LITTLE GIRL

This is my little girl Sadie , she's 6 years
old spoiled rotten and sheds constantly
but I love her to no end anyway .

She's a great alarm and would do her best
as a guard dog but she's only a foot and
a half tall , besides she loves almost everyone .

My neighbor has allot of outdoor cats ,

Sadie doesn't hate cats she just thinks

their fluffy chew toys to be tossed around

and chewed on , the thing is the cats don't

stick around to let her play with them .

Anyway I think I've got her to just leave

them alone {finally}.

I took this picture of her while we enjoyed

the cool temp. and sunrise this morning

and she didn't even give the cats a second

look .

This afternoon we are going out to my

sisters house for Sunday dinner

[Sadie LOVES to go for rides] and she

will get to see her sister Sassy . I swear

that sometimes Sadie can read my mind

because whenever I'm going to take her

for a ride she knows it before I ever give

her any verbal indication , all I have to

do is head for the door and she just goes

with me as opposed to when I'm not taking

her she just sits or lays down and looks

at me as if to say see ya later daddy .

She's my good little girl .

NOTE

My beloved Sadie went to Doggie Heaven March 30th 2008
