    At night we've had full outbound lots, in the morning it would be empty but the inbound you couldn't find a spot at all. Two weeks ago in Harrisburg they had no room so the were parking trucks right outside where you walk out. The old lady told me its a new spot for the day.

    Good luck ACH, I can barely get down to the gym and it's just down the street! I'm so tired. Feels like all I do is sleep, eat and work. Went to the gym yesterday and got the call when I got into the car to leave. "Can you be here in ASAP"? I said, no but I can be there within my 2 hour call time! Another morning run when they told me the night before they wouldn't need me till the next night. I never believe them when they say that though.

    How's the bid run?

    It's going good. Average 350-500 miles a night plus at least 2 hours clock time. A lot of building and breaking sets all day. It's not the same run everyday so it's nice it varies.

    I know I would never make my own gym which was a half mile away lol. P90X worked good but to much to carry if I have to layover. Insanity is a little shorter and don't need any equipment. So I figure I'd do insanity for the 60 days, maybe a double then do P90X again to build muscle gain

    Well, I finally made it to Atlanta. I got caught in a traffic jam 1 hour north of Atlanta FOR FIVE HOURS! (a reefer trailer full of frozen pizzas caught fire on the shoulder of I75) I'm guessing I don't get reembersed for any of that?
