    Tell him to try the Deli chicken or fish (beer battered) # Gee Cees (MP57 I-5). Good food, big portions, easy parking. Danged chicken strips were half a breast. Good place for a to go meal on that route.

    He's in an 06? Man his DM must like him.... My 1st one was an '03...lol

    Sounds like Joanna. Careful! She's a nice lady but a bit scatter-brained. She forgets a lot of stuff and often doesn't communicate well.:biggrin_25511:

    Now, if it's Norma, he's a lucky driver. That lady will run thru fire to help a driver, whether he "belongs to her" or not. She was my favorite.:biggrin_25514:

    We live in Portland OR so you think swift H/H may be an option with regards to a bit more home time...

    HH out of Sumner slows down on weekends since Costco usually doesn't take deliveries then. This means Hubby gets home every weekend. We live near the Lewiston Id terminal. He brings a costco load in on Saturdays and takes a paperload out on Mondays. So lots more home time than if he ran OTR.
