    We picked up at 8pm but the trailer had a light out. Took it to our company terminal to get it fixed. The wiring was cut.

    Almost at our fuel stop I-80 Nebraska exit 179 in North Platte

    Still in denver , drop this off tomorrow , then go 60 miles to pick up another load .
    next load has a appointment time that has a 10 hr window built in for a break , I hate those !!!!!!
    All because some people don't know how to show up with avail hrs ....oh well tis life I guess.
    I just hope it do t turn into a 23 hr wait like the one I had in TX a few months back. That sucked !!!!!

    At the Loves in Baxter, TN. Running with a good friend of mine, Tony, another Munoz driver. We're heading in the same direction until the 300 yard stick on 81 in VA when I veer off towards Baltimore on 66 and he heads up 81 into PA towards Pottsville.
