    Finally got moving a bit after noon. The whole fiasco burned 4+ hours of my day. Wound up bobtailing to the CB yard and shagging a trailer to Lincoln then picked up a load to Charleston IL. Pulled into a little truck stop near Hannibal, Mo and made a spot with 5 minutes left on my 14. Headed to the house from Charleston and getting fully moved in.
    A bit buried in all the administrivia. Forgot to slide my tandems on my inbound at Lincoln so I’m sure I’ll get dinged for that but I *think* I got all the macros done. Not feeling it right now but hopefully there will be better days.

    Was hoping that doing a split sleeper might salvage the day (I’ve never used it before but after wasting a decent chunk of the day I was ready to try new things if it would help), but alas I could only make it a couple hours down the road then I’d have to shut down for 2 hours,

    The def tank on this Peterbilt is small. Just above 1/8 tank and I didn't even pump 11 gallons of the stuff

    Actually the best pizza in CB is pizza king at the corner of kanesville Blvd and North Broadway...butttt ..they don't open until 4 pm and they don't deliver.
    You would think with all the Italians in omaha good pizza here would be easy to find but its not .
    If ya want a really good pie around here ya go to CB.
