    This is where I parked yesterday evening near New Orleans... I slept with the sound of the crickets... really. In the middle of the night another truck came but left before me. In the morning, I went inside the casino (only business in that place) to use the restroom... It had bars around the entrance, security guard and locked door. Saw one customer at 7 am... Went to Walmart DC in Brookhaven, MS and they sent me back to this mess in New Orleans.... 2 deliveries today, one in Mandevile and another in Harvey... Delay getting info from my company today, problems with load and delays at both docks wasted my time... At my last stop, after waiting for hrs for them to vacate the only dock available, I dropped trailer at the dock as WM DC instructed me and as store person told me. Then, as I was unhooking, a WM driver arrived and told me "OH NO... :biggrin_25516: You will not drop that here.." "Really?!" I said as I continued to unhook... I was getting soooo mad with all the crap I put up with today... I left anyway and hooked to an mpt trailer. Now parked at this small Walmart store... soooo small... if a truck comes by may have to move my truck back and forth... We shall see. A Swift truck ran over the curb, and damaged the bushes trying to park in a corner..... :biggrin_25513: [​IMG]

    Back at the little shack in the swamp, ah Florida.

    Had my first cup of coffee on the porch, Miss MiMi our cat always enjoys coming out and getting the before sunrise patrol.

    As I was setting smoking my 4am cig she gets to chasing something in the dark, slap on my forehead is a tree frog she was playing with.

    Have to love it.

    I always seem to end up with a dog butt RIGHT ON MY FACE in the middle of the night unless I "accidently" locked him out, or I'm sleeping in the truck...
