    Born and raised 35 years is Swedesboro. Love my hometown. Although I understand those that hate Jersey. Lol.

    Got back in the swing of things today. Currently parked at the Peelot in Hammond, La. Not one of my favorite stops but I was tired and actually was shocked to find a spot as the Petro was already filled minus the reserved spots. Will stage at the customer in Atlanta area tomorrow for Thurs morning delivery.

    Waffle House for dinner.

    We actually enjoy Swedesboro. Love that there is a Dunkin Donuts & truck stops nearby. People at the Ceva Swedesboro are very nice. Plus, they have a hot girl working the 3rd shift. Lol

    Welp , parked at M.D. service plaza outside Baltimore. Lol
    hope I don't get shot. Oh and it gets better . I have to be in long island by 6 a.m. probably the worst time to go in . Lol
    I am always up for a challenge , but #### not this big of one. Lol

    Oh well , on a good note . I got put on a dedicated fleet today , so after this run I get a raise and guaranteed miles a week .But !!!!! I have to make it out of long island alive. Hahahaha

    Any advice from anyone ? Lol

    My advice is don't expect great service or good food from any of those service plazas. Every time I've been in them....the people working there take forever. Hot yuppie customers though :)

    Parked at Ceva in Dallas, TX. Our Ft. Lauderdale load got cancelled. Fingers crossed we get a good pre-assignment. We want to avoid California while this blitz is going on.

    Parked at the Petro in New Paris Oh/Richmond IN on 70. Pick up my homeward load at 7 unload before 1 and I can be home before 5. Off for a shower. Smell like a wet dog from tarping in the rain.

    Staged at receiver for 0800 delivery. Got plenty of food and a bathroom I can use so all is good. Got green lights at all the scales so I'm a happy camper. Was shocked the NB scale on 85 was closed coming into Georgia but I ain't complaining.
