Are the acorns falling from your oaks? Man at my old place our grounds would get covered with them this time of year.

Bouncing off my roof all day. I was on my back porch last year talking with a friend, a squirrel was in a tree above us dropping acorns on us. Little fucker was a pretty good shot!

[Oldchucky]

Chuck you were in snow ??? Tell all my friend I’m curious

 

[Oldchucky]

My job entailed, delivering medical equipment between here and the Oregon border! All throughout the mountains! I’ve seen my share of blizzards, chains, and hairy situations! Winters are no picnic around here in the mountains! And It’s sure as hell not all flat! And these people need the stuff, so unless I-5 Is close, it’s up, you go! And pound your way in! And hopefully out! L O L! I know the back roads of Shasta, Siskiyou, And trinity counties, like the back of my hand!

 

[Oldchucky]

Da goils! Couple of months to go!

And when you got stuck did you strap on your shoes grab your walking stick and put on four miles or so glad I lived on the prairies flat asf

 

[Oldchucky]

I know! Flat as a pool table! Only got stuck in peoples driveways! Most of the time they could pull you out! Or, you could use their phone for a tow! They were so happy to see you they would do anything for you! L O L! Best part about the job! A lot of wonderful people! Really restores your faith in humanity!

When someone bedridden gets discharged from the hospital, things, like oxygen, a hospital, bed, or even a bedside commode, Take on a whole new level of importance to folks!

Gave a few folks like this their final ride home. Really makes you think about shit! Dropped a guy off in my Niehgbor hood who probably made it a few months IF THAT AT ALL. I think about him and his family every day. Kinda fucked me up! The whole EMS things fucked me up lol!! why do I care so much! Damnit Chuck!

you were those folks life line man! You were their world : )

 

[Oldchucky]

My phone is my life alert! I use the crutches, like walking sticks to negotiate the trail out here! You were an EMS! Now that is high pressure! Much respect! We do what we have to do! You’re meeting people at their worst hour! Even Hospice! And I found 99.9.9% of them were kind, grateful, caring, etc. it’s really inspiring! And I’m not falling down yet! Just taking a few precautions to make sure! I don’t want my ex coworkers Making deliveries to my place just yet! Yeah, I never could be an EMS! I don’t think I have the stomach for it! L O L! Take it easy, brother!
