    ^This... I picked up a trailer in Gaylord last Saturday and one of the tails wouldn't close. It wouldn't unhinge at the top so I had to reach up with a load lock to bump it down. I reported it.

    Tails not latching closed or staying latched is the most common problem I've come across. Soaking the latch with lubricating spray often helps but not always.

    I got to Fargo yesterday evening and decided I needed to do some laundry. Instead of going to one of the truckstops, I found a 24hr laundromat only 4 miles away from the yard called Dasch's Duds. They have plenty of room to park your bobtail. Washers are $1.75 and dryers start at $0.25. I put in $1.00 and didn't even need all the time because they are HOT. The dryers are also huge, 2 washer loads can easily fit in 1 dryer and they will be done before you know it. The place is dated but well maintained. The dryers looked older than me but they #### sure worked.

    A sweet elderly couple owns it and they stopped by to sweep up. Very friendly people. This will definitely be my laundry spot in Fargo.

    Got tired of changing daytime running lights (again!), sprung for the LEDs. 100,000 hr life. We'll see how they do.
