    God bless you and your wife John Boy and my prayers for your Moms recovery. She sounds like a great woman and her son has also shown his great character and love for his family. You are the best.

    Decided to go back to the truckstop after 14 counted down so I have a bathroom. If they don’t have US95 cleared tomorrow when I get up Ill take a detour route I totally forgot about til now. Run US50 to NV361 which will come out in Luning. Been that way before when I loaded a brokered load at a mining facility in Gabbs.
     
    Finfn1372, motocross25 and Bumper Thank this.

    Only load they had for me after my NJ load fell through was a short hop to Smyrna, DE. Turns out they have a nice rest area in Smyrna with plenty of truck parking, so I'm only 6 minutes away from the receiver. Load delivers at 6:30am tomorrow morning, then a deadhead back to Richmond where my New Bedford, MA pre-plan still awaits.

    Delivering to a tiny little two-block industrial section in New Bedford, MA, surrounded on all sides by tight little residential streets. Approaching the delivery address, I see this little dock sticking out of the building, onto the sidewalk:

    I think to myself "I sure hope that's not the dock I need to be in, since I am facing the completely wrong direction."

    Turns out, that's the dock I needed to be in.

    I’m sure glad this Yankee never gets asked to go up there. This far into my career and I don’t miss it at all.
     
    JoeyJunk and Lonesome Thank this.
