There is a tourist attraction in Chattanooga, Tennessee called Rock City. They used to paint advertising on barns a long time ago.

I love old barns.

One of the counties I delivered to had a self guided barn tour
15 or 20 all over the county most were dry layed limestone
A few were round and huge

Is the yellow part reflective?

Are you going to "borrow" one for your collection?

No, I don't want anything that will remind me of working with Helpers. I've had about four or five in my 32-year driving career that were really good.

Is the yellow part reflective?

It appears to be. My Helper has worked the Preload for one month and also sported a black UPS cap and took tokes off his vaper all day. At least he had a car and made the meet point fifteen minutes early.
