    Baker city at the corral truck stop.
    Tried to deliver that load to Toyota this morning but they said no. I said it was a drop and their trailer. They said they had no room. Not a fun place to get too. Teuck entrance is on a dead end street. Guy said for me to back up and park on the curb. Had to call them to get in.
    So I doubled park since there's trailers dropped on both sides of street.
    Lady said to walk in only to have them say come back tomorrow.
    Drove over to Troutdale terminal and planner said I could tcall it. He find me something soon
    Sat until noon and finally got a load that picked up at terminal and delivered 20 miles away in Portland.
    Then he sent me this load that picked up at the terminal again and goes to Las Vegas nv for weds delivery.

    I was headed out from Elwood, IL to I-55 N and everything stopped - for a rollover on the Arsenal on ramp.
    Someone was in a hurry it seems.
    1.5 hours later we were moving.

    I was just 100 yards too far on the road. Just behind me, after I stopped, the cops redirected traffic.

    Morris, IL now at the TA. I pick up a Costco load going to MO in the morning.

    Hesperia ca at the pilot.
    Made that Tjmax delivery in Las Vegas this morning. They had no empties to give.
    Had a pick up 3 miles away. So called a dl and asked if I could bobtailed to pick up.
    He said to give it a shot, so I did lol.
    They did t ask if I had an empty and I didn't tell them.
    So.picked this up with just over 4 hrs left on my 70. So.made it here with 45 minutes left.
    Delivery is at 9 am tomorrow and last time I was there, took them about 6 hrs to unload. Hope not this time around.
    Should have googled the place b4 accepting it
    Oh well. Have doc appts Monday and tues. So won't be going far

    Got to pick up 12wide. Trailer missing tread, have team disscussion about post tripping trailers.

    Trailer side rails broken from pulling outward. Have disscussion about hooking to frame when carrying walls and slabs, that are OS.

    While waiting on the tire guy. Then deliver, now done. Im at the Kingman Petro trying to get down to wickenburg tomorrow night so all i have to do Friday is the return trip.

    For ilustration purposes. Bottom photo is how to prevent the above from happening.
