    hope it is better than the sorry PFG in Victoria, Tx. several years ago I sit there about 9 hrs all for a few pallets, not a truck load. Might improved by now, but I highly doubt it.

    After extensive research the route I want to take to that family dollar store in Ky checks out thankfully and hopefully I can get into and out of the lot there. You would think they would have designed their stores better to accommodate 65-70 ft long semi trucks that gotta deliver their stuff to them....

    Yeah it's a battle just to get parking on the street at PFG sometimes.

    Well, weather and roads got real nasty and crap soon as I hit Ky, not a plow or salt truck in sight. WV was smart and started salting ahead. Maybe I won't make it to the family dollar. Parked at the J in Catlettsburg, Ky off exit 185 two hrs from the family dollar. No point driving further at 25 mph with a 1200 lb load. Im not afraid of snow but the other drivers are what I get scared of. Of course DM wanted me to keep going but by the time I get closer to Lexington in this snow storm Im betting there will be no parking left. I thought maybe Id be ahead of the snow and maybe it would miss Ky all together but was wrong. Im sure they'll get hopping mad at some point....
