    And they decided they will also do a truck PM cause it's only two thousand more miles away... Mechanics are very busy today... So, I am not sure I'll leave here today... but that's ok. I was in the break-room, listening to 5 other drivers... I can learn A LOT from these folks... Each one here has at least 26 yrs experience trucking... :yes2557:
    But after a while, had to come to the only empty room in the building so I can concentrate on my things here...

    Well... mechanic did everything on the truck but missed the bald spot on the tire... I had to show maintenance boss where it is and they will replace tire tomorrow cause the shop will be closing in a few minutes... So... I will be back in the truck soon... Wish this place had a restroom and showers outside...

    http://articles.latimes.com/1989-12-20/news/mn-615_1_tule-fog

    Local weather will report sunrise, Sunset, and Day break (when the sun burns through the fog, if ever)

    Pulled up at the house for the night. ADM was out of product so I had to make other arrangements to get out of Memphis this morning. I still can't believe that they have the new wider east bound lanes open in West Memphis
