Got coal guy to commit to a specific day of delivery.(tomorrow, half+ of 5 ton order) Ordered 4 weeks ago, he had one truck go down for a week. So hes backed up some. He wants to deliver to other buyer in general area. So he will have to do second trip back up here again. Been dealing with him for 6 years... his coals good, and clean, and burns good.

If he is anything like the coal dealers I have used over the years, he is work'in his but off this time of year. Having a truck go down is a huge problem because he is probably the guy that has to fix it on top of everything else.

I'm glad you finally got coal come'in!
