    Back to hauling propane for the winter. The downside is they've put me back on nights and I'm sharing a trailer with someone. They starting giving night pay, so at least that makes it a little better, but still not really all that impressed about being on nights again.

    I was thinking you probably would. Nice to get to a plant and have them glad to see you.

    You took the words right out of my mouth! There's a high possibility I'll be back tanking in the near future. I'm not able to share just yet.

    Ive been enjoying this dedicated run. Same product, same people same day/time for delivery. Only 2 nights in the truck and fri-sun off. Ya tolls are expensive, and traffic can suck, but that can happen anywhere.

    Been on a nice Christmas run from St. Louis to Washington state. I was really glad for it since sitting for five days would have put me behind the eight ball come rent day. Just finished driving over Cabbage, it went just fine in the daylight even though there was fog and the road was wet sometimes. Looks like it snowed up there yesterday. There was some snow and fog and wind in Wyoming and Utah and Idaho (well OK the wind was only Wyoming but you already knew that I'm sure), but nothing too bad. Deliver tomorrow, hoping for an even longer New Year's run haha!

    Had to use the 16 hour rule last night because of a truck-car collision on the eastbound MA Pike. Didn't get home until 0130, about 3.5 hours later than usual. Same thing happened last week only westbound. Both times sat still for a couple hours while mdot cleaned things up. Thankfully almost out of holiday season when this stuff seems to spike.

    Loaded propane at DCP in Auburn ME this afternoon and then headed for the interstate to go north. While getting up on the highway, the #### turbo let's go. Now three and a half hours later, still waiting on the tow truck. This is just so fun, I can't contain all my excitement right now.

    Picked up a load of cream out of western Wisconsin this morning. Delivered to West Bend and then home. Time for a nice recharge of the batteries and a nice home cooked meal with my trophy wife! :)
