    I can see it. The scary part is I wasn't joking about that little red number... @KAK wasn't lying when he didn't tell me about that secret.

    Oh I'm sure you would've found away. Might have wasted a little, but my combination tire thumper/Thief deterrent might have been able to open those bottles. You know the saying, where there's a will there's a way.

    Pollard flat for the night.

    Couldn't find a casino to stop at within the time on the clock after I got a clean level 1 @ the Cottonwood scales with a placarded HM load.

    I should have parked at that Mustard Seed Market & Deli Travel Plaza in Sumner, WA last Monday afternoon... That would have given me one more hr to work today and I could use that to go further and park at a MUCH better location tonight... A Walmart in Jerome, ID...
    But I wasn't sure how congested the Mustard Seed would be at 15:00... Now I know... not bad at all... :biggrin_25512: Was there today... I mean Tuesday at 16:00 and there were plenty of empty spaces...:yes2557: I remember when I drove by that place some years ago it looked like a mess... seemed to be a mud yard... Now it is all cement and it looks neat... :biggrin_25519:
    So, now I am parked at a big empty totally dark area on I-84 OR... There's absolutely nothing here...
    Still had 2:40 available to drive but it was 22:30 pacific time and I was "afraid" would not find parking at the rest areas ahead had I kept driving till late.... wouldn't even try Pilots and/or FJ :biggrin_25512:
    There's a Cenex across from this empty area where I am but it's closed or abandoned... Saw one tanker parked here... his lights were not on... Didn't turn my parking lights on either.... :biggrin_25512: May be better this way... So we can "hide" here... After I arrived, another tanker came and parked next to me... turned his lights off too... We are all in the complete dark... under the moon shine... Put another pad lock on the trailer and hope nobody will mess with anything till daylight...

    Welp, file this one in the "last to know" file. I heard rumors there was a Kroger super DC coming to Atlanta to replace the two ####holes we all know and love. Of course I didn't look at my bills until I was done walking the dog along Oakleigh in East Point. However fortunately before taking the 1/2 mile hike to the gate to try checking in. My rate confirmation had Oakleigh on it so I'll be getting the broker to buy me lunch on this one.

    So they've cloned Delaware, OH. at old Fort Mac in Forest Park. In typical Kroger fashion, they now have this fantasticly huge DC, super easy to access on roads made to fit modern trucks. With 1,000,000 square acres of concrete surrounding it. Probably the next biggest slab visible from outer space next to the ATL airport.

    I pull up to the gate early. Yes, you can't park here. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. I've seen stupid, and this just doesn't even come close. To her credit, the girl at the gate even admitted it was pretty dumb and was nice about it. Probably a contractor Kroger should promote to PR.

    So from VA back to here then bounce to FL later this afternoon after my nap. I expect to be kicked off the property when MT and will probably get displaced to the QT. If my plan comes together, I'll occupy a paid space at the Baldwin FL TA later tonight, staged for a mind numbing Walmart experience.

    Any solid edge will get-r-dun. Back in my mechanic days it was always funny watching someone try pliers or something. Then just set the lip of my bottle cap against the edge of a tool chest and pop it right off. @Tall Mike I doubt it, but if your still around Jax tonight or tomorrow, holla. I'll probably get outta WM around 10-ish and not yet sure about a pickup time in Perry GA. Probably a late one, but i learnt not to count on them and their time telling talent.
