    You will find that there are many Chinese places that you can get a truck into for some good food. You go into the one in Guymon, OK when they are having there AYCE crab legs and you will find the place busy and mostly Latino in there eating

    Sounds good to me, will have to remember that lol. So got a load to slc, have a 8 am fed ex to Memphis and had to go to the "new" slc terminal. Wow is all I can say, want to avoid this place in the future! Ugh

    You will find a few terminals that you will want to avoid at all costs, especially on a weekend, Memphis being one of them.

    Well I'm late on getting back on here, been busy. Done with mentor and tested out at home terminal in Greer. Got a 2014 international and ran a soup loaf from NC to Ohio then soup again to Fulton MO and played in the snow. Just wrapped up here and heading to p and g to go to NY beside Syracuse. I'm already tired of this bitter cold and it's snowing here and supposedly most of the way to drop. Ugh. But I have been easy early for everything so far and they are keeping me going. Going to have to do a restart soon if I keep running like this. And if I keep losing time to the snow. Woke up Tuesday am to 7 inches on the ground. Thank god I was loaded lol.

    So fast this week at 2800. Would be more but been dealing with snow. I'm stuck right now at a ta in Erie PA. But they have been keeping me going with no down time yet except when I am really early for a live load or unload appt but that is to be expected.
