It’s expanding the existing route, but since my current route only exists of 6 locations, it’s more like visits than a true route. </p><p>In the midst of tough times, I’m actually adding several locations, may even become a real route again, being the only job that’s stuck with me thru thick and thin for years on end, it’s a worthy cause and hopefully profitable again soon.</p><p>The new boxes are the same size but these ones are plain white because they’re much less expensive and can hold a bit more sticker information. Maybe one day I can re-invest in the original boxes, which are laminated, colorful, much more durable, and self-promoting, twice as expensive to start, tho. </p><p>Will add pics of the new boxes once assembled and ready to go. </p><p><br /></p><p> ~ </p>YoungImages.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00760352466473241979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8784570143026009159.post-71210833546039823432024-03-02T15:15:00.006-06:002024-03-02T21:14:04.530-06:00Hybrids are not toys<p> I’m on the road quite a bit making deliveries. </p><p>I purchased a hybrid car that slowed down massive gas consumption. New was over 60 miles per gallon, it was phenomenal! After several hundred miles, it now averages about 40-50 mpg on street. </p><p>This model of hybrid was also designed and built light with a tiny engine, gas consumption being foremost in mind, and it worked. </p><p>It’s street legal but NOT freeway legal, or shouldn’t be. </p><p> Even tho I now avoid freeways like the plague, I can’t recall seeing that many hybrids on freeways. Streets are packed with Teslas and hybrids, not on freeways. </p><p>There is a graph on the dashboard, when the engine works too hard, the graph goes into the red. Ignore it all u like, but when the engine starts banging like it’s trying to hop out of its cage, ignore that at your own risk, I’m not. If u can afford a new hybrid every few years, u can afford to overwork a tiny, gas-saving engine. </p><p>Certainly there are many hybrids on highways, but I have yet to see a single one on that 2-lane freeway with no shoulders, potholes, and a speed limit of 70 miles an hour. </p><p>Drivers who honk at hybrids barely making the speed limit, educate yourself. </p><p>Google it, and it’s not easy to find because it’s NOT a good selling point. </p><p>I’m impressed with hybrids and what we put up with. </p><p><br /></p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

<p> The week after next, I’m beginning a working vacay, scouting locations, enjoying the scenery and hoping for the best! The route is so small right now that customers won’t even notice! </p><p> Since I’ll be traveling the tri-state areas, not real sure where I’ll land, I’ll share photos of the road with u here. For instance, I caught a pic of a tree right outside my house that I’d never really noticed before and it had the most incredible shades of greens and yellows, in November no less!?! I almost didn’t post it because the pic doesn’t do it justice. I’ll miss my visiting birds terribly but they’re wild and smart and can be found again. Thanksgiving is a mixed blessing and I’m thankful indeed for my beautiful customers! </p><p>Enjoy! </p><p><br /></p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhththYqF_SgMHB4aSAzl0VLpdX1wdoVnd-ruN09nbYzf59xdt-EDprc-ZntykBJNK4vHZKb1hWaxxk3a6KGrg-peNsb-mjd-PMjJJyD5pKsR3D7jV_djkuffyZFfEyQVlxqGDOmusCWXtIV0UUe3As8ssqn4XAcpzYNl0XKkmkDuRswMBdpPLnb5sk83c/s1928/CA8E0AFF-D516-44C1-A174-BDEE2D74C20F.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1928" data-original-width="1630" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhththYqF_SgMHB4aSAzl0VLpdX1wdoVnd-ruN09nbYzf59xdt-EDprc-ZntykBJNK4vHZKb1hWaxxk3a6KGrg-peNsb-mjd-PMjJJyD5pKsR3D7jV_djkuffyZFfEyQVlxqGDOmusCWXtIV0UUe3As8ssqn4XAcpzYNl0XKkmkDuRswMBdpPLnb5sk83c/s320/CA8E0AFF-D516-44C1-A174-BDEE2D74C20F.jpeg" width="271" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAU1dXKRBJRwZ-3VbSr3EqdVGmIRhE-2a7bOXl3b7GsHdlB-JsQ-DhwLQvNQeMUBe0I2mZ2W8OKlKSLFQvvG4bFBpVrKH474kdjNcRYFpMzye3m0pN_zBwN-KhFcrew0wndEO4egX-yIvsKbsZpvi5z1P3RHe6dZek8cahhtURgleZKa_K4C4d2KhpbSY/s3091/AD8AC11B-5DAB-42DB-9A95-ED94748AD7A2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3091" data-original-width="2033" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAU1dXKRBJRwZ-3VbSr3EqdVGmIRhE-2a7bOXl3b7GsHdlB-JsQ-DhwLQvNQeMUBe0I2mZ2W8OKlKSLFQvvG4bFBpVrKH474kdjNcRYFpMzye3m0pN_zBwN-KhFcrew0wndEO4egX-yIvsKbsZpvi5z1P3RHe6dZek8cahhtURgleZKa_K4C4d2KhpbSY/s320/AD8AC11B-5DAB-42DB-9A95-ED94748AD7A2.jpeg" width="210" /></a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">~</div><br /><p></p>YoungImages.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00760352466473241979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8784570143026009159.post-35986977916660872742023-11-11T12:15:00.001-06:002023-11-11T12:15:53.988-06:00May God Bless & Keep Our Country 🇺🇸<p> </p><p>Have an awesome Veteran’s Day weekend! </p><p>Take advantage of all the Veteran discounts, any Senior Citizen discounts, free meals or beer!

I mean, look at the feathers surrounding the horses hooves, they are clean and trimmed to perfection.

Moving to a much smaller office makes it difficult but not impossible to continue a small route. </p><p>I receive emails but it’s always just a return email address, no other text. I may begin replying to the emails wondering if there was a question, was a bot, spam, or comment. As far as I can tell, the comment sections are still working, so feel free to communicate with comments and email addresses. Will post any updates here. </p><p><br /></p>YoungImages.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00760352466473241979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8784570143026009159.post-59676109244241665602023-09-23T17:54:00.005-05:002023-09-23T17:57:51.287-05:00 :-) <p> Visited 2 stores. </p><p> One always does well, and she couldn’t have been nicer! I was stunned, I babbled something about a delay and a heatwave and she totally understood! Am going to find a way to keep this location as long as they’ll have me :-) </p><p>The other store is also a favorite and I’m not sure why! </p><p>When it’s serviced properly (me!) it does just fine. When there are delays or the candy gets low, the area around the machine gets messy and sticky. The good news about that is that whenever there are sticky gooey fingerprints around a machine, that always means kids checking it out! They may be playing around it, messing with it, sometimes they pull too many candies out with their little fingers, but it’s invariably a good location and a little cleaning goes a long way. Whether the owner keeps the machine there is always up to them, but so far so good :-) </p><p><br /></p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVJG7vy5doKjywz9hJS4zs7C7zvgRDx7tP919gK2Ck7Jsxw6N5JyXOUWM-3V8InoiC8wmSNPNsP4BOeXrxUktpmCmAUvDOBzHECiz9Gpcd6irmMI0b2Kr9xrPpTfFC_5mfVO1goC-fxH_QjZdJQUeAqj5l2v3v57DBff2B8enOIrlY-nNaGy4zZ3ZbCCw/s925/E343BEDA-8FFA-432D-A088-5E8BF055528C.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="431" data-original-width="925" height="122" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVJG7vy5doKjywz9hJS4zs7C7zvgRDx7tP919gK2Ck7Jsxw6N5JyXOUWM-3V8InoiC8wmSNPNsP4BOeXrxUktpmCmAUvDOBzHECiz9Gpcd6irmMI0b2Kr9xrPpTfFC_5mfVO1goC-fxH_QjZdJQUeAqj5l2v3v57DBff2B8enOIrlY-nNaGy4zZ3ZbCCw/w301-h122/E343BEDA-8FFA-432D-A088-5E8BF055528C.jpeg" width="301" /></a></div><br /> <p></p>YoungImages.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00760352466473241979noreply@blogger.com0
