    Delivered at a paper plant in Usk, WA, this morning. Made it to Spokane with 8 minutes on my 70 -- but only because I did the last 20 minutes on PC when I was stopped at a red light coming through town on US-2. Headed to the tank wash in Vancouver, WA tomorrow. Hoping for a load out of Eugene that goes all the way back to Michigan or someplace like that -- that's what I got last time I was out this way.

    I'm at the Petro which is kitty-corner from the System Transport mothership. I haven't been in Spokane since I had heart surgery here after I woke up in my truck across the street and could barely walk. Hopefully I can get out of here tomorrow morning without another ambulance ride to the hospital. (Great hospital here, by the way. But I can't recommend having open heart surgery unless you really need it.)

    Well, I got a load from Woodburn OR to Fernley, delivered it this morning. Doing a reset this weekend in Fernley, then heading to the tank wash in Richmond CA. The tank wash isn't open on the weekends and I would have been hitting Bay-area traffic at rush hour if I'd tried to get there today (and probably wouldn't have gotten there before they closed anyway), so I'll go in Sunday sometime, get washed out first thing Monday (hopefully), and get loaded and get out of Cali Monday afternoon (hopefully!!).

    Kind of nice to get a reset. I was just starting to get some good hours back, but on the other hand I haven't had a day off for a couple weeks, so it's nice to sit for a change. And Fernley isn't bad. I like the desert.

    Man, I'm really really sorry. Nothing sucks worse than having to drum off an entire load.

    Yes, I'll eventually get used to it.
    But right now its a major pain. Spent almost 40 min on the drive line in the yard and didnt realize it. Got this feature called yard move, but if you shut the truck off and then move again your back to the drive line

    I still have room to drive around. I can go on duty at the IMTT Lemont gate and stay on duty the whole time till I leave. I heard the way the laws are written that's going away. But I don't currently have a yard move option I my eld.
