Parked Here for the Night

I had a plan change. Decided I didn't have Hereford in me and there was a youngin there chomping at the bit needing to run gots a house full of babies. So I traded with him after Waymack approved it. So here I sits till morning in Clarksville waiting to load in the am. Getting old sucks.

Dino no I feel I been cheated to all's I got when I signed up was a retarded half crazed blue heeler. No fast cars or women. Where's the complaint box

 

Coming to you live from the TA in Earle, Ar. The dang class took up 4 hours of my day and ate into my drive time so I parked here. Will haul butt to Katy tomorrow and take the ex and the kids out to dinner and then deliver this at 0400 Friday morning then pick up a load of pallets for a same day drop in Dallas

 

Just be glad it's cold and you can't smell the parking lot. One day last summer that one was the worse I ever smelled

 

Were you westbound? If so, you had LOTS of company. At least 10 trucks either in the ditch or froze up on the shoulder in the 20 mile stretch west of Brooklyn, and twice as many cars.

I called 911 on the first few, but they'd all been called in already & the dispatcher started copping an attitude. I sure wasn't about to stop for each one and be a sitting duck for the next guy who lost sight of the road...

Assuming she has tried taking all of the air out of the seat and/or tilting the steering wheel in various positions, she may want to consider pedal extenders: http://www.creativecontrolsinc.com/products/pedalmates.htm

 

@ Love's/Thomson,Ga. and man it is quiet. Got to be the cold wind. parked near a couple in a Southern Refrigerated truck and as i was walking back from subway,watched her close door of truck.she had thrown cups and etc. out on the asphalt. I know this because trash WAS NOT there before.that is how close i am to them.they closed the curtain quickly as i gave them the WTF look.


yes i was going to pick it up and throw it in the trash can right behind both our trucks but the wind moved it rather quickly and far as i was leaning over. strong wind and two jerk southern refrigerated "drivers".

 

Wind is sure cold

 

Somehow managed to dodge the frozen precip this week with an odd trip down south. Supposed to be sleeping now at the Slidell, LA TA. Supposed to be 19º tonight brrrrr LOL. Optimistically gonna kick the first stop off tomorrow in Ocala, FL then spend the night either at the Wildwood or Tampa TA. Might even splurge and spend a shower credit. Sometimes a plan just comes together in spite of the odds.

 

Parked at the rest area just west of Madison WI. On 90/94... its -5 already....

Made my delivery in Morrison Il this afternoon, then shot into Chicago, picked up a preloaded trailer and hightailed it out of there....

On my way to Fargo ND.... then to Allentown PA.... rack up them miles!!

 

Lots of comments... I would like to read them all... but no time... Gotta go to bed... spent a lot of time planning my day tomorrow... among other things... slept for 5 hrs last night and may sleep for 6 tonight... I am at a nice FJ in GA north of Atlanta. Going south to a harbor in FL...
Was going to leave here at 3 am and avoid freaking Atlanta rush hr traffic but don't want to start my 14 too early... So, will have to leave a little later and o face that traffic... My eyes are burning... gotta go...
