    Welp parked at a "Road Ranger" in Rochelle , IL.
    Already seen one moron come flying in the parking lot the wrong way , like his hair was on fire and needed water. Then he proceeded to go blasting through the scale the wrong way to get out ...

    Why , oh why did I park here ?
    come to think of it , I am just gonna slap the #### out of myself now....:yes2557:

    Well, they pulled a good one on me. Got an out west load for later in the week so helping cover some pre-loaded stuff. Sitting in Battle Creek, Mi at the TA. Got five stops off around Detroit today, and one more to go. Then load outside of Lansing back to Bama. Lil ol 700 mile run felt like just going around the corner!!!LOL. Y'all have a good one!

    Parked at the Receiver in Houston. Didn't get out of Cow town till around 12. So took my time getting down here. Cruise set on 60 and I thought it was 2 pallets but had two PO's on this load so 5 pallets looks like total weigh was 6,000 pounds. Got a nice 9.2 mpg with the K Dubya. Even with a not so nice somewhat of a head wind. Feel's good in Houston. Nice breeze. Windows down, wind a blowin. I'm going to sleep like a baby. The wife and the step son are at the Thunder game. So won't hear from them for awhile. Not even going to bother the EX wife to bring the girls to see me even though I'm not to far away. Just going to call it a night, and hope they have me rolling as soon as I get this load off. Would like a short run to get some more miles b4 Wednesday's cut off. We shall see. Nighty night don't let the bed bugs bite. We gonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnne!!
