    well we took some pics and have them on our facebook page. Don't have a site to host the pics so might have to get one. Didn't take alot.

    We had fun with only a few complaints. So we should be back on the road either later today or tomorrow sometime.

    no, it was blocked off.. that is actually a TV on the side. There were a bunch of cool trucks but we have a crappy camera.

    We did end up buying a frig for the truck and now all we need is to buy a microwave and we will be set.

    They had a convoy for the special olympics and 73 trucks took part in it. It was pretty cool to see. Got to see the Grascals (bluegrass band) and John Anderson. The Grascals were pretty good and entertaining. But I can only handle country so much. Went and did laundry in the bad part of town but was amazed at how friendly the people are in Kentucky. Then was saddened to hear about the truck driver who crossed the median and killed 10 people and himself.

    Hey CB! Glad ya'll made it to MATS! Awesome pics!
    We've been doing good on the miles too. We had to sit for a few days in Fontana to get the truck worked on, but even still we did good. Still having problems with the A/C. There is a truck we are crossing our fingers for when we get back to CA. Hope our DM will let us grab it, if it's still there. Have been putting this truck into the shop too many times. Been in there 3 times just for the A/C & nobody can get it fixed. Other than that all is great!
    Right now we are in NE heading for IL. Then pu in IN & back to Fontana. May have to grab a reset when we get back to CA. We took 80 on this trip, but going to take 40 on the next one. 80 in WY shut us down for about 6hrs. Hope they will be ok with that idea, lol.
    Anyway, glad ya'll are doing good! :)
    Anyone feel free to find me on FB - Melissa Brabb & Twitter - MsDaisy81.

    glad to see you all are doing ok.. Its Saturday before easter and Im in the hotel in Joplin. Came in this am under a load heading for Grand prairie. Figured I would come to the term get some needed work done to the truck and do a reset.. i had a great week 3400 miles with current load. Gotta admit it sucks to be out over a holiday.. but atleast the company through a BBQ today and we all ate very well..

    Hope you all are doing well.. feel free to look me up on facebook aswell. The easy way is searching by my email jimbarrett06@yahoo
