    We are going to go home the 25th. I have a chiropractor appointment the 26th. If I didn't have that setup I think we would probably change our mind and stay out one more week.

    Hey you go out to Denver a lot. It's been awhile since I've been to Swire Coca Cola at 9900 East 40th Avenue. That's the one where you get off at Havana Street go up to the first light and turn right and then the place is there on your left as I remember it. Can we still Park in the warehouse lot across from the entrance gate where are you check in at that Coca-Cola plant? I was asking because I noticed in the dispatch directions it says that there is no overnight parking there. And it has been so long since I've been there I don't know or recall if that is something new in the dispatch directions. I mean we're going to be there in like 470 mile. I think we have time to stop and take a shower so I'm thinking we're going to be there maybe a little earlier than our appointment time of 8 a.m. but I didn't want to have to park elsewhere and then go in there. Cuz I know that place won't let you check in before 10 minutes prior to your appointment.

    They had it down there, but I think they were more focused on keeping the interstates clear. I remember driving through there several years back in bad weather, it had iced over pretty bad over that way. I was trying to get to Clarksville. I was coming into Arkansas by way of US 65 I want to say, I am drawing a blank but I'm thinking of the road that travels through Searcy, and Little Rock. It was a slow bumpy ride til I got to the more populated Little Rock. Back then, it used to be terrible to drive on 40 or 30 in bad weather. It was much better this time around.

    I think it will be fine til you get back, Climate seems to have pretty high character people working for the company, with maybe a couple of exceptions. They probably should have locked your truck in one of the bays or something, at least when they go home, since you're getting back Saturday

    How'd you make it? I went there last week and parked at the warehouse across from Coke and crept in there when it was time. It was a Landstar there so I parallel parked behind him

    It's 167 that goes north out of little rock then 67 up thru searcy and northward. The Air Force Base is in Jacksonville. My aunt an uncle live right close to there. We get to stop an visit sometimes if we get thru there with available time to visit. We used to park at the wal-mart just south of the A F B but it don't allow trucks anymore. Last time my aunt's pastor let us park in their church lot. Which i thought was real nice of him.

    we got there bout hour an 15 minutes early. Checked in 35 minutes early an they got us right in. I thought they wouldn't take us till 15 minutes b 4 appt. They've told me before not to check in early but the lady today said it just depends on how busy they are. I know ya don't for sure wanna be late tho. An yea the warehouse across the street still looks good for parking to me. For some reason i thought that I'd heard that , that had maybe changed but nope it looked good to me.
