    It's legal as far as i know but I would advise against using Indiana state route 39 to from I 74 down to Clayton.
    I ran it on my 1st trip for fcc going to Clayton...its not a good road !, It's very narrow with tight blind S curves and left and right turns that will require use of the grass to make .....good motorcycle road !
    But of course that's all in the past now that I've retired lol.

    That paper mill in Wabash you are going to is very easy to get to just follow the signs , if your trailer isn't loaded and you live load they are very fast.

    I really need to get another camera. I had a DSLR camera but I sold it. Wished I hadn't. It took some amazing pictures, like these. I'm really big into this type of photography, and it's on my bucket list to see and photograph the northern lights.

    Your opinion. No need to bash my choice of vehicle. No, it isn’t the blazer from back in the day, but I still like it & I got a really good deal on it. That impala was coming apart from the inside out, unfortunately. I don’t have the time or the knowledge to fix the numerous small and large things wrong with it myself. So, what works for you, works for you and what works for me, works for me.

    PSA: when going to rescue a truck, remember the PrePass is assigned to the DRIVER, not the Truck. Might want to toss it in your Go Bag… or not, they still take Cash, for now… LOL ;-)

    Got back yesterday and the truck was ready last night. Grabbed it, ran to Fremont for an MT to go grab a load from Royal Canin BUT I somehow missed the turn for the OLD road to the north side of town and ended up on the NEW road… ran 10 miles to some little town before I could get turned around but even then ended up on an old dirt country road… luckily it went straight through and I was finally heading back to tow another 10 miles.

    Ran out of my 14 so I shut down at the home base and this morning went to grab ice and the Shop wanted to service my trailer. So two hours later I’m soon to be rolling.

    Heading to Edwardsville IL and then right back to Texas. Got a nice two day run now that I’m back under load and rolling.

    feels nice to be back in the RV after a week of homelessness.

    stsy safe.
