    Going to sleep. Still on 75. Still not moving. Well every so often we move a few truck lengths. No more for me. Tired and the truck wont idle. Done. If they need me to move they can knock or go around.

    Still have not seen one nb plow. About every 40 min one is seen heading sb.

    Solid F for Mr Bevin. Would say his title but you kinda have to lead to be called that dont you? Very limited info from state sites about where its shut down exactly, what they intend to do, or estimated opening.

    Its good for what it is. I actually ran into an IC today in Ontario CA when doing a load swap. Found out he's employed by a fleet owner. Apparently from his mouth the fleet owner is averaging $1.50 per mile overall. Obviously could do better than that but running loads that average 1600 miles that mileage rate isn't too bad.

    Only negative is I'm responsible for parking the truck on hometime and the company provides no assistance in that regard

    The bulk/tanker yard on the east side. I've never been to the new drop yard so can't speak for that location

    Walmart DC London Ky. State police ordered everyone off 75 below xt41.

    Good thing to, asked about a couple codes it threw today. DEF line heat. Looking at it tomorrow or rather in daylight. Hopefully get repaired before my newly restarted 10 is up.

    Oh. Well then I'll park there then. Lol. Houston creeped me out the first couple times. But since it's my "home" OC I'm totally used to it now.

    @mickeyrat How are things that way. I'm gonna be going by there southbound later this afternoon. Looks like it shouldn't be a problem but with the way they take care of the roads in Kentucky it's better I ask.

    So the score is , I still sit. Walmart outbound locked down. No access to 75 on Ky80 as yet. Truckers doing uturns in the unplowed cut throughs make it difficult to get by or something like that.

    Does snow make people automatically stupid or sommething?
