Good night from...

Cruel Jack's Rock Springs, WY.

I've watched this crane (the kind with pulleys, not the kind with feathers) circle around several times. He drives down the street a bit, turns around, drives back to the fireworks shed across the street, turns around....well, I know he can't be after anything I have. Just read the side of my wagon and you'll know I have nothing of interest. I have my air brake set and am backed to a slightly downhill curb, so I won't be needing his services. Maybe he's waiting for that bullhauler high-idling next to me to step out of his truck. With a little work and a paint job, that old 379 might look pretty good. The driver has managed to keep the body nice and straight.

 

I wish Massachusetts had places with cool names like that, rather than the British influences everything is named after in this state.

 

Oh, it's Cruel Jack's in Rock Springs, WY.

Nevermind, I've been drinking.

 

Just coming off one of those. I had put in for hometime but instead got a plan that gave me a couple of days at home while dispatched. Plenty of time to get to the final. I didn't get as much home time as I wanted but this is a good load for east coast Swifties (about 1700 miles with the deadhead included).
I actually think this happened by design. My DM or a planner or both were on the ball!

 

lancaster terminal. i had a preplan to get me to phoenix through the weekend but a blown trailer tire and 4 hours waiting for roadside screwed up the timing and they yanked the preplan. i'm afraid i might end up stuck here for the weekend instead of heading home (already 3 days late).

 

In Tallytown ... deliver tomorrow in Mobile.

 

Jarrell, TX

 

Cloverdale, IN. Wanted to drop tomorrow night, will be just over the 11 hour for the day, so will have to decide tomorrow, find a place in PA before Allentown, or take a chance and find place at the TA just over the line
