    I’m thick headed. I’m still parking at the same place. I’ve been parking there the last 17 years and that was the first time I’ve ever been hit. Of course, there’s one spot that is questionable and of course that was the spot I was in. The nice place about where I park it’s in the same complex as the Florida Highway Patrol headquarters, troopers coming and going 24/7, having coffee at the Dunkin’ Donuts in the property, sitting and talking all hours of the night. There’s 4 of us that park here for hometime, and the desk has our numbers just in case we need to move the trucks. It’s only happened once in 17 years. The last time my wife and I flew overseas for a month, I told the watch commander we were going away for a month and he noted it and they just kept an eye on it. I have an alternate spot that’s actually closer to the house, but I got a parking ticket there a few years ago so I only use it if I’ll be there overnight.

    Finished up a reset at the Loves in El Reno, Ok and wasn't too bad til about the 231 MM in AR where I ran into a 10 mile backup due to an Ice covered bridge. De-icer truck got a flat tire on its way there so they had a guy shoveling salt out of a pickup onto the ice. Was about a good 1/4 inch thick covering the whole bridge.

    Bed, Bath and Beyond turned out to be a drop and hook here in Pendergrass, Ga. Live load in the morning in Augusta and drop on the yard in RVA. Hopefully get this fridge replaced since it isn't working. Motor runs but doesn't cool.

    Show up at the shipper this morning and of course I wasn't given the right pickup number....hour later and Im still waiting for them to get me the pickup number. Being a Knight load you would think it wouldn't be difficult to get the right number I need. Nobody wants to pick up a phone anymore and want to do everything through email or IM or text....drives me nuts showing up without the right info I need and gotta keep moving around so Im not blocking the drive way....
