    There are still states that allow parking on ramps, but little by little that's coming to a end, Cal. Still has areas where you can but shut down a few do to nasty ### drivers that throw their piss bottles on the ground, soon there will be ramp parking,

    Whatever the load dictates. I usually try to run early. Start at 3 am, parked at 3pm, not always possible though.

    I will run out of the night, or into the night, but I really don't like running through the night, but as I said, the load usually dictates when I run.

    I am on elogs, and if you run efficiently hours are not a problem. The reality is you have the same number of hours available on paper or elogs. It is just a different way of recording them. Paper logs simply make it easier to drive illegally and cover it up.

    I left my house in Delaware Monday, I am getting unloaded at the moment in Amarillo, I got here last night. Two loads, 1000 miles each, so 2000 in 4 days, I still have 32 ½ hrs left on my 70 and since I arrived last night, my clock has yet to begin on Friday.

    You adapt and make do.
