    Did NOT get a Pillsbury load in southern Indiana. Instead, sent up to Chicagoland (Elk Grove Village) to load marshmallows for Ochelata, OK. I got here six hours before my 14 was up... but they took so long to load me that I bled out my clock here and am having to spend the night in the shippers parking lot! Doumak - on my bad list. They don't do appointments. Everyone gets there at noon or so and they just load in their TWO doors FCFS. ugh! Should get an early start in the morning. Probably SPRIMO or Joplin tomorrow night.

    6 hours before 14 was up? Bled out your clock?

    That's roughly 2 hours for a 8 break split or 4 for a full 10.

    Use that wait time to your advantage.
     
    ironpony Thanks this.

    Beautiful drive down US191 this morning. Hit Bozeman at sunrise, which made the drive down the western edge of Yellowstone pretty cool.

    Passed up Sugar City as my load info came in... Picking up a frozen load in Burley tomorrow morning headed for Chattanoga, TN for Thurs.

    I will be running against my 70 still... a real easy day with less than 6 hours available, followed by some 10-11 days.

    Currently in Blackfoot ID.

    Eff-in'-ham at the Eff-in'-jay!

    Hmmm... if I do a couple of split sleeper berths and haul my posterior, I can arrive at my 90 just before 1 AM Monday... for a 4 AM appointment.

    Yeah!

    Yeah. Thought about that. But since it is a WalMart delivery for Sunday and we had the time, didn't need to do the split thing. I am glad they at least had somewhere to park... or we would have had to split. I have always hated splitting. It is so confusing. Don't do it unless I have no choice.
