    I hate to admit it but I took my eye off the ball and didn't even know I was running into this .
    No internet service here so all I know is what I hear on the radio .

    I can tell you it dont look to good. Chicago has had ice then snow and quite a bit left to go. Its not the End of Days, but it ain't a cakewalk in Cook County either.

    I knew I should have left Wisconsin for Houston Friday.
    Wanted to wait until it warmed up today to load. Using open cab forklift.
    Maybe roads will be clean tomorrow.

    FYI
    I live just west of Chicago and my driveway was a sheet of ice 3 hours ago and its been raining/sleeting nonstop since.

    There is a winter weather advisory in effect for the area until 6AM tomorrow morning.

    Well, I showed up at the secure yard where I drop my trailer this morning at 0530 to head back out to reality after a long 3 and a half day weekend.

    One of the service guys parked a day cab right in front of my trailer. Have to wait now until the shop opens. Not the first time this has happened either.

    Unfortunately, I don't have a complaining leg to stand on, they let me park here for free. So, I'll just smile when they show up and ask them to move the truck.
