If we were to go back on the road, I'd for sure have a sewing machine with me!
It's a possibility! I kinda miss the road...

I did have a sewing machine while on the road. It saves your sanity while waiting on loads. Some days I miss being on the road, until i think of snow in the mountains, then I'm glad I'm home.
