I'm all checked into the Ramada. There is wifi if you have a laptop. There are 3 computers to use by the lobby. I'm gonna unleash the Budha and go take a swim in a bit.
Things are still going well. We did some straight line backing and rookie road on Friday, and then I drove the rig back to the terminal. We're cramming a bit as everyone had Saturday off so we have to kinda make up for the loss of the 1 day. Well I'm off for a dip and maybe a sandwich for dinner.

Jess, he didn't do to bad. Course he had you or 6 pak on the phone and his student was there plus the waitress, so he was able to keep the jaws flappin 1 way or the udder. lol Would have been nice to have met you at the same time but oh well. Am sure it will happen 1 of these days. I'll still be out here cause being OTR IS for this kid. Ha!!!! Kid??? Did he tell you that I'm an old, long gray haired, hippie looking dude?

Doesn't matter what state your in, if your coming into a small town, always be ready to slow down and do the speed limit. Lots of money is made by small towns that way.

True & I do 99% of the time. Its just when you get out on those US highways that are set at 60 for two hours & get lured into a grove then all of the sudden you hit a small town & need to start dropping the gears it can be real easy to be over by 10 mph, real easy if your heavy.
