The web site was back up last night and Google didn't report any attacks. So we are safe again.

I have been working with my support people to prevent this from happening again. Thank you for all your patience while this was getting resolved.

After stopping at Giant Food Store at luch today, I snapped this trailer as it was being hand-unloaded at the local family Dollar store. I was standing in Giant's parking lot when I shot this. The trailer was built by Stoughton and is being pulled by a black Werner Freightliner Century. He came out of the Family Dollar Front Royal, VA DC.

Those are nice trailers, I don't think I've seen that style.  Some of their store locations I'd hate to take a 53 footer.

It's always nice to see the birthplace of trailers!

The Family Dollar store's unloading door here in New Cumberland isn't exactly cramped, but the driver is forced to jacknife his tractor in order to get the trailer lined up with the door. And this particular Werner driver went "mudding" somewhat to get the trailer lined up!
