    That was the first time I had parked there. There were alot of seagulls, killdee's, and herons making use of it. I'd rather look at stuff like that than trucks goin back and forth. Plus being nosed in I could be buck naked in there and no one can see anything! LOL

    the freak show in Bloomsbury was already well in progress when I got here lol

    pilot was backed up 5 into the road so the locals had the travel lane clogged trying to get around the one that swung half into their lane to try and get in. that means nobody gets off the ramp either because of the ones trying to come out from the TA. ugh

    the TA is backed up 3 into the road and wiener and some no name outfit blocking the last 2 fuel lanes so that nobody can get in the open lane to parking. ugh and sigh lol

    45 minutes from the time I stopped at the ramp until I even get into the TA. at least I've got a 48 this trip and wiggled into a relatively safe ( I think ) reserved spot and was able to tuck my nose in behind the other two hoods in the line of fire. I really hate paying for these things but getting reimbursed for it now takes the sting out of it.

    so many rambos on the radio I don't think any of them know who they want to fight or why lol cheap entertainment.

    at least I got off the clock early enough I may beat the bulk of the traffic in the morning and catch it right as it starts up between Bridgeport and new haven. that might be a little more manageable if I can just get that far before it clogs up.

    already planned 260 empty back to Fogelsville and then 26 loaded back to leesport. rinse and repeat. hopefully not Holland again tomorrow. last time I got caught in that loop. something different this time would be nice. maybe a Syracuse or Jamestown or oakdale. at least I can run a little farther with better parking options.

But as much as I run 81 I guess I'm growing immune. Sho is nice to be a lil further west for a sec. Keep er tween the ditches!

    Delivered in Aurora, Co this morning then headed over to the Flying J to shower. #####ed out the store manager for not embracing the whole legal weed thing. Then headed over to the Walmart to sleep. Load doesn't pick up till 9pm.

    This Walmart is interesting. Truck friendly. The parking lot is full of trucks, RVs and people who live in their car.

    @cbholister that is a beautiful picture of your gauges !

    I private messaged @bullhaulerswife the other day and asked if she could email @wore out. Fingers crossed that he sees it and gets back on here to let us know he's doing alright. Hopefully he isn't in jail for hurting his daughters bf. :biggrin_2552:

    I didn't like the Diesel Boss dashcam so before we left home I bought the Garmin 20. O-M-G ! Love this thing. Quality of the video is amazing. Now just gotta wait for something cool to go down.

    Don't be so modest. You know you've become Chef @'olhand now. I picture you in the back of the sleeper with the truck stop 12v oven, frying pan, etc. cooking up a killer meal.

    I hate I-81 in Virginia the most. Nothing interesting to see, a lot of traffic, no where good to stop at and never ending.

    @HeWhoMustNotBeNamed is from the midwest ? I thought he was from San Diego.

    That's what you get for trying to steal all the Nantucket Nectars.

    I was at the Pilot around 1pm est. and it was a mess then and all I wanted to do was scale out and go. Took me 1 hour.

    Right now at the westbound I68 welcome center in West Virginia with a flat on one of my drives
     
    Rocks and TruckDuo Thank this.
