    Parked at my old reliable parking place on the east side of Dallas, the monster lot at the Terrell TA.

    It's funny seeing guys wedging their way into a closer spot when there are about a 100 pull through spots two rows towards the back.[emoji1]

    OKC for the night.

    Trying to remember if Rocks is in the neighborhood yet.....

    Short day today... 602 miles in 8:54 drive time. Per the Qualcom.

    Met up with a guy that used to run @ the previous Co I was with. Had a good chat.

    Nap time for me.
     
    Rocks and TruckDuo Thank this.

    So get this, that load that wasn't supposed to be ready till 23:00 tomorrow night in Greeley was ready today when I showed up at 15:00 to drop my empty, does Colorado have a lottery? Anyways hooked it and came on down the road to Kit Carson, CO...talk about quiet ...good eating across the road though.

    This thing delivers at noon on Tuesday...I'll have it on the yard 4 miles from final tomorrow, surely they will let me deliver early or drop it in the yard. Try to sweet talk my way into a load for Monday morning so I can relax in OKC for a minute...where is miss Rocks anyways?

    Shot her a message this morning and hadn't her back which is unusual. I know she was heading to OKC yesterday because she checked in with me to see if I would be along 40 at all.

    Hoping everything is ok.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    Drove all day on Friday... from Chatt, TN to OKC... arrived at my co. terminal yard in the evening... Nobody there...
    And to my happiness, "my" baby was there on the same spot I left him... :blob5::blob4::blob3::blob2::smt026:toothy7:


    [​IMG]


    And it seems that NOBODY used it... Still had my smell inside... :biggrin_25520:
    What a WONDERFUL PLEASANT feeling!!! :yes2557:

    Still clean as I left it... And they put a new driver's seat to replace old damaged one... :biggrin_25519:

    [​IMG]

    I got so EXCITED and so HAPPY that I started to load it right away... didn't stop until it was almost all done...
    Then, went to nearby fuel station, put my frozen lasagna in their microwave, had a meal, washed my hands and went back to truck...

    FINALLY AT HOME!!!
    :yes2557:

    Last night I slept like a baby... in my bed, in the truck... in the quiet co. yard... no noise, nobody... :biggrin_25518:
    And today I finished loading the truck.... everything back in place, nicely and neatly organized... everything clean... I LOVE IT!!!

    [​IMG]

    Only thing left here is to install the CB... and although I can do it, will let shop do it... co. prefers this way... And maybe they will put new tires on the drive axle like they said they would...

    Tomorrow will rest some...
