Trucker fuel price protest

This started about a mile from our place. I was going to drive down and get a picture for you, but the stuff with Camry kept me here.

Hurray! Gotta love the truck drivers! I'm so glad they are doing this. A photo would be GREAT if you can get it. Could I use the photo, if you get it, and link back to you from my blog? We need to get the word out that NYers won't take any more of this garbage!

Mrs. M, if I could have gotten down to get a picture I would have been glad to share, but we were dealing with a sick cow..sorry

Ted, I am aware of prices in your neck of the woods...good thing places are closer together there at least. thanks for visiting and for taking time to comment

Just checking to see how Camry is doing?

I've actually been surprised that there hasn't been more strikes. This one and one other are the only ones I've heard about. Of course I don't hear everything so maybe there has been more.

Nita, she was on her feet yesterday morning, but another cow deliberately knocked her down. She is eating and drinking...time will tell

Tipper, this whole situation is crazy no matter who or what you blame.

It's just awful, isn't it? I never realized until I read an article in our paper yesterday that the station owners aren't making much, if any money. It's less than 10 cents/gal and if you tack on the fees credit card companies charge them for accepting the cards...it drops to 2cents or less for most of them. A lot of the independent stations around here are refusing to accept credit or debit cards. Wonder where it all will end?

STacy, it really is unbelievable. Somebody, somewhere is getting very, very rich...it isn't us though is it? lol
