    My intentions were to get a shower, but I changed my mind once I saw the showers. Plus I was out of hours for the day.

    Sitting at the T/A in Perrysburg, OH for my 10+ break, lol. I only had 6 hrs avail to run today. Picked up a load yesterday going 1100 miles to Minnesota for 0900 delivery tomorrow. Knew I couldn't make it so ran as far as I could and going to do a swap with another driver. It sux and I feel bad because I could not take or make the run. Sure would have liked to get those miles, but oh well.

    I get here and I send a message where I am and he asked "what time could be you be there tomorrow"? So you do the math, GPS is showing 670 miles out, I pick up 10 hrs at midnight, and I have a 62 mph truck....Needless to say I told him no way to even make it tomorrow. So I'm waiting for a driver to show up to swap with.

    On a bright side I got a free hotdog and teeshirt here at the T/A for truck driver appreciation, lol. Life is good....

    Dude what's wrong with my pic? I'm pretty fly for an old white guy, lol.

    Picked up in Pontoon Beach and dropped at Walmart in Beaver Dam, WI. No MT's available so I bobtailed down to Richfield where I sit no doing my break. I have a load going to PA out of here that delivers Monday morn, so I have plenty of time. Then hopefully he'll get me something to get me to the house for my hometime Tues.

    I hope everybody had a great weekend.

    Yea Sully I was there as you were pulling out. I waved at you when I pulled in and went around the lot, then saw you pulling out when I parked. Enjoy that break at the house.

    Last day of home time. Always good to get a couple of days off. Seems I do just as much driving when I'm home as when I'm on the road, lol. Looking to move and think we found the house we want if we can get it.
