    Sitting in Joplin,MO kicking our butts for not checking with safety to make sure we got all of safety crap none, thought we had but nope didn't get no safety bonus this time. Also thanks for the recommendation NTAT but next time we'll go down the road, it wasn't that great, some of their food was weird, they had mayo shrimp (fried shrimp with mayo all over it), their octopus was good tho. Our truck runs awesome just got to get a few things fixed on it, gotta find somewhere to get new seats, the guy who had it put racing seats in it and their alil uncomfortable

    Good plan, traffic was surprisingly bad at 1930.

    Different strokes for different folks. I like it. I find most others don't. I didn't care for pacific rim, but I find most others do, so there ya go Haha. There is also a smaller one north on range line on the left called Golden Dragon I didn't think it was all that, but if you're feeling adventurous.

    St cloud Minnesota is all I could do. Only had one spot open....these slackers need to get up and get a move on.

    Pretty heavy rain down 57 to MO. Ran my 8 down to 2 minutes. It stopped pouring down here at the 57/55 split. First break I've had from down pour.

    Edit: Huge temperature difference from the mini unplanned vacation in GB. 30's to 67 lol

    Gonna finish this 30 and head down towards the house and spend Rest of day with the old lady and son.
