    Yeah I’m still here. Had a little bad luck about 5 weeks ago and ended up in the hospital. Getting out today and hope to be back OTR in a few weeks. I haven’t jumped ship yet. ;-)

    Yeah that's pretty much the long and short of it. There's very, very little room between docks but you can setup to back straight in so there's that.

    Ya delivered there this morning. For being downtown Chicago wasn't too bad. But holy #### those docks are close together. This is a picture of my mirror pulled in and the truck beside us....

    Truck beside us couldnt figure out how to pull his mirror in. Thankfully they pulled the trailer to the right of us out so i could swing right immediately to get out of dock or else trailer door would've hit his mirror trying to pull from the dock.

    ####. Yeah last time I was there, I had to get out and squeeze my trailer door on the driver's side in real tight so that a Werner driver could get in beside me without tearing off my door. #### those goofy trailer tails.

    Also hate that they take your keys. Last time I was there it was HOT.

    While waiting in LaCrosse for our load home went over to Buzzard Billys for supper. If you guys get stuck in LaCrosse I'm telling you make an effort to go here! Real authentic cajun food.

    Tonight I had the 12oz blackened prime rib for $19.99. Holy #### it was good. Definitely 1 of the best steaks I've had. That blackening on it just set it off. 20191010_200740.jpg
