    After I got the truck back, I got a load to pick up in Jackson Tn going to Washington Mo. I went and spent the night at the receiver.
    After empty, I got a load to pick up in Calvert City Ky going to East Palistine Oh. I noticed a small leak on a trailer tire, so I stopped at Lebanon Junction Ky at the Pilot. There is a Bossman tire repair there. Got the tire fixed in the am and then headed for the house. I had requested to be home Easter, so the took care of me. I will head out early Monday Morning around 0400.
    I had an detention request in that got turned down.....as usual...lol as I was late for my appointment. Once they investigated that I could not have made it when dispatched they paid me my $40. I know there are guys on here that always gripe about that, but I have never been turned down when I go back to them and present my case....fyi apparently when you are given an assignment that you can not make, a blue screen pops up for them to see. So it is an easy thing for them to verify!
    Have a wonderful Easter! "HE IS RISEN!

    I have a better understanding of how the detention system works after my recent conversation with the nice lady in payroll. Now, no worries, if I have an issue I call and explain the situation. There's alot more to it than I originally thought.

    Just wondering if anybody knows what the weird looking trees are on I-80 in Ohio around the 54-55 mile marker?

    I think you are talking about the apple trees. They look that way from years of trimming on the trees.
