Tornadic Activity

And Figuring Out Time Zones

Whew! Just dodged myself a couple tornadoes out here in the Midwest, in a Dodge…


Not really, but their were several stirring in my general area on I-74 West, and then I-72.

I’ve driven several hundred miles the last couple days, and also gone through all four of America’s time zones in the last four days—and all I can say is I’m getting used to it.

Working from Indiana the last couple days has made it extremely easy to talk to both, aftermarket folks out west, and the diesel people right here in the middle of it all. When I first took this job and started out the day gung-ho at 8:30 am (western time) I’d call all sorts of people back east, who were out to lunch….every day, until I finally got more aware of time zones.

Now, I can practically feel a time zone change 25,000 feet up in the air. Glad I got that figured out. More on why I’m back east tomorrow.
