You too! Stay safe with that labor day traffic on your way up to Wisconsin. They certainly enjoy their drinking holidays up there lol

 

Headed to St. Cloud. Guessing it'll be a reload tomorrow out of that one beverage distributor up there that has like 3 warehouses back towards Saint Charles.

Just glad to be off I-40 for a while.

 

Sometimes they back haul bird seed from up that way back to menards in Sullivan Mo.

 

Yeah, it takes some speed to do that to a landing gear. The yard is so flat in PA, I don't see how that could have happened if it was off the ground at all, but I guess it's possible the yard dog did it. That's not gonna be a cheap fix either way since it tore the entire landing gear/cross member up and not just a leg. Definitely won't be a good day for whoever gets caught being the culprit since it wasn't reported lol.

 

Yea that's an obvious visual that someone was just to lazy to stop an get it fixed. Can't blame it on the yard dig either cuz they lift em off of the ground so they wouldn't have been dragged by the spotter.

 

This repurposed steer tire took a beating this morning lol. I'd run it if I wasn't 700 miles out from the terminal, but I don't think DOT will let the gash with chord growing out of it slide. I can't blame anyone but luck for this one better than a brand new virgin tire at least.

Reloading at Cold Spring Brewing Co. and headed to Du Quoin. Appointment isn't until 17:00, so this was a convenient time to have a trailer tire get assaulted. This is my first time ever hearing the town Du Quoin. I thought I covered every square inch of IL after my time with GP Transco, but evidently not lol.

 

How was GP Transco to work for? I’ve always been curious about them.
