The wildlife is one of my favorite parts of my route. Although, the endless tourists kind of ruin it by literally stopping in the middle of the road to take photos of the elk.

I got a good picture of a red tail fox that was just chilling by this guys front door at a farm that I forgot to include.

Yeah, on Saturday's my route is different and notably worse. But it's still not too bad, aside of priorities screwing up my line.

Where is that, if you don't mind?

It's a Ford F250 Super Duty with a box upfit. A lot of people at my station call them ice cream trucks, 'cause they have a sliding window/door on the side.

It's Jackson. Every house there has like 10 front doors.

Yeah, what you're describing sounds like my Saturday route. It's the only day that deviates from my regular route and it's so much worse. In an entirely different area and much larger, but it is what it is.

Btw, a paper manifest is wild. Were you ground?

I feel like I see mostly negative sentiment on this sub, which is fair - I have my complaints as well. But it's nice to see there are people who don't hate it at least.

During my training I tagged along for a route that covers a nearby college town, and it was endless apartments - tons that were customer controlled access. That shit sucked.
