Parked Here for the Night

Tularosa, NM.
Heading toward Dayton & Cinci.

OK (Tulsa?) Tomorrow night.....

 

At the house--should bt till AM--but w/this ice storm predicted for overnite tonite(sunday/monday)may have to bail as much as i do not wanna--course if any of ya have seen the results of a lil bit of ice in Eastern Pa...you know what Im talkin bout....
Oh and NCMickey--Where are you going in Fogelsville? Parking is at a premium in the area...and no real what you would call "full service pkg"within about 25 miles...therre are lots of lil spots all the way cross 78--BUT--many drivers goin to NY/NJ hole up in PA then leave very early--so places fill quick and early--especially on SUnday night--and Fogelsville(believe it or not)is very vague...there is actually(to be technical)no where in Fogelsville you are going to drop--there are lots of places--over a 10+mile area that have Fogelsville addresses--and quite a few of them have pkg on site...so let me know maybe I can give you a hint or two--but timing is critical---especially on Sunday

 

Oh I certainly do...lol

 

Ummm...yup...but it is a fine line between being helpful and giving away trade secrets....

 

Its okay, you can talk about those trade secrets all you want. I'm not listening.

 

the last thing we need is mega fleets ruining our secret hiding spots..

 

One of those secret spots I have used now and then is just beyond a steep downhill grade with a traffic light at the bottom. So, with the prediction of icy precip, I'll withhold it in the name of safety!

 

Haha! I'll find my own hiding places, part of the fun of the job. As a new driver though, even though I like pilot's rewards (helps that SNI pays for fuel there, so free points.), I'd love to find new places when I don't need to use a pilot.

Anyways, doing my pretrip and headed down i20 and i22 for ms... And I don't like i22, it's boring as hell so far.

 

somewhere i heard you dont hafta park where you fuel
i could be wrong based on the way peelots are full

 

I've started doing that more Yankee. Pilots aren't terrible in my opinion, but if I can avoid it or don't need a shower I find someplace else to stay.

...and you know what? Since I started that, I've actually dropped some weight since I'm not "forced" to use fast food and instead eat real sit-down food.

I keep stuff in my rig, but I save it for rest stops and shippers.
