    It’s that third world country just over the river bridge from Memphis.

    Would you say that it is west of Memphis?

    Looks like they're sending me past the fabled West Memphis. Got a load going from Sandston to Carrollton, TX. Due Monday morning.

    Freight's been super light out of Richmond, so I'm glad to have it.

    That hill phoenix wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, four lanes all the way in until the turn to get to the dock place. Bounced to Toledo for a Volvo load to the WM yard and now headed to Reno.
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy and dwells40 Thank this.

    Got told today my truck will be put out of service shortly, 423,297 miles on it. Hoping they put me in one of those ‘23s or at least a ‘22 Volvo.
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy, Bumper and JohnBoy Thank this.

    My wife just told me that Mom’s first round of chemo has been a total success. Now we’re planning round 2.

    This was our yearly marriage counseling session. Passed again. Ollie could care less.

    Drop my Volvo load and out of hours and need a 34. Normally go to the Pilot in Fernley but the darn place is full being the electronic signs say carry chains…..my philosophy is stay out of the northwest and mountain states if one doesn’t throw chains so ppl who need parking cuz they are out of hours can have it. Only 1330 and places be full….

    I am hoping that we've returned to purchasing KWs again by the time they sell this one out from under me.

    Excellent news in regards of your moms treatment. I was worried Ollie wouldn’t be featured in a picture, but my panic was premature, good to see he’s holding down the couch. House looks rad man, both inside and out, but the one you got of the exterior, that’s the definition of “curb appeal”.
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.
