Taking a 34

A unique set of circumstances cropped up this weekend, allowing me to take a 34-hour break to reset my log book in Joplin, Missouri and visit with family and friends.

The chocolate factory was interesting. They have a large warehouse filled with boxes and boxes of frozen chocolate and I'm taking a load up to Independence, Missouri for long-term cold storage. I would have figured keeping chocolate at zero degrees F would change it somehow when it thaws, but according to them it is done all the time and you can do this with any good chocolate without problems.

I spent about $25 in the factory store getting goodies which goes a long way at one of those places. I brought over some of the proceeds to the party last night.
