    sure is Paul, we don't get enough winter conditions to really have experience in prepping for those storms.

    I have averaged a few 34s on the road. 2 of them were due to bad load planning/drop and hook where we had no trailer to load and they didn't load on weekends.

    My line west runs from Chicago to Laredo lol. right now sitting in Cincinnati next to my trailer. took an hour to back in between traffic coming and there being a telephone pole directly in front of the parking spot on the opposite side of the road. Had to blind side in, and when I was finally in straight the nose of my tractor was 3/4 of the way across the street.

    If ever in Calexico Ca, and looking to eat, Carrows restaurant across road from Walmart.
    Way better than dennys!
    Huge selection, with a whole Mexican section.
    Had prime.rib and eggs.
    large portions, decent price.
    I think they are a california chain

    Is it wrong that I had banana cream pie for desert after breakfast.
    I figure its like fruit and cream, those are breakfast items.
    Also a firm believer that candy corn is a vegetable too.

    Sitting in Waco, gonna be in Laredo in the morning. Yesterday was a long day, cutdown US31W in KY to avoid the wreck on 65 South of Louisville (ext 109 I believe). then decided because of that delay I didnt want to hit nashville at rushhour and I ran across the KY parkways, and down US 51 to Memphis. averaged 55mph.

    Ky parkways and down 51 not bad, I suspect that south of dyersburg tn is what hurt you the most.
    Next time consider running 155 west over into Missouri, get off at xit 4, hwy u west onto U-55 south. Grab I-40 and cruise. Will save you a headache.
    I go that way a lot, sometimes just to shake things up.
    Only thing going if north will hit ky poe, sometimes have to park and walk in, going south no worries.

    yea that is what Pete just mentioned on the hijacking thread, I navigated the new course on the fly, and liked it alot better than hitting Nashville.
