    @woreout said something about Tonopah... Maybe he got too close to area 51 on his way there?



    536 miles in 9:49 today, not bad considering that was all US highways, and 80% 2 Lane. Still running in and out of Omaha.

    And the wind could quit blowing any day now...

    I could park at some Pilot or Love's in Memphis tomorrow and would be a few minutes away from the shipper... but would that be a good idea...? :biggrin_1square1: Those truck stops look just YUCK!...:confused: Super tight, congested...
    I may have to park much further away from shipper if I want to park in a safer place...
    Now I'm at a truck stop across from super congested and tight FJ in KY border with TN... and looks like I will have to wake someone up when I decide to leave at 4 am... :angry2:

    Pretty sure he was having to watch a rookie try and back in next to him with the trainer guiding. The trainer finally put the trailer in the hole himself.

    Kind of a long day today. Loaded in B'more and then scooted up to an out of the way dealership in Yorktown heights. No direct route in and of course it started snowing!!! And I agree with @Hammer166 I've had about enough of this wind also!!! Unloading with snow and wind on the side of some NY back road ain't much fun!!! Oh well I guess if it were easy everyone would be doing it!!! Load for another turn to Jersey in the am......

    I don't do pronto so well..........

    Parked at the receiver near Parma ID at just past Midnight for an 08:00 delivery...... Not bad considering the shipper in Olympia didn't want to see me until after lunch.
