    Yeah I cant evennimagine trying to sleep with a foot in a cast... I like my feet to be Uncovered when I sleep... Plus I sometimes experience restless legs and need to twitch my foot to get to sleep, a cast would severely hamper my ability to sleep peacefully.

    It sucks. It's one of those things you really don't realize until you get there.

    MISSION SUCCESS!!!!

    I managed 712 miles last night... Just got parked with 3 mins and 37 secs remaining on my 11.

    This puts me just within reach of home... As long as I dont experience any major traffic delays tonight, then I should be sitting in my recliner 24 hrs from now.

    So I have completed one part of The OM's epic red tape bidding.

    There's no cutting through the red tape, just being able to work with people that are experts at it and getting it done.

    Bested my own old record by 3 miles... I had a few better days on AOBRDs... But not much better.

    That makes 2721 miles, in 4 shifts of driving, since I left the yard at noon on Monday ... And I've got 696 miles to get back to the yard. That will bring the weeks total to 3417 miles in less than 5 days. As of right now I still have 28 hrs 50 mins remaining on my 70... Probably be down to a little over 17 hrs left by time I park it in the yard tomorrow morning.

    Its been awhile since I've made such a quick turn around... It feels good to see big miles every day for an entire week, but #### its alot of work... LOL
