I'm back. *This time* I have the pics to prove it.
When we left our hero, he was breakin' rocks in the hot sun, makin' little ones out of big ones. No, that's not right. He was haulin' rocks in the cool pre-dawn light, makin' home ones out of store ones. Yeah, that's better.
I lined up before they were open (technically I'm in front of the BIGger truck to my left here). When they open the gate, I drive onto the scale in my little truck. I get weighed unloaded (click!), get loaded (ooooof!), get weighed again (pay the man!).
