    See this why Arizona is the greatest state and someplace like Indiana is like..............Indiana.

    Last time I was in Indiana I needed to resupply and they had no hot chili.

    So not only do they dislike good roadways, their disdain extends to quality chili.

    Thank God I'm in a civilized place like Arizona.

    I thought you were taking a 34 in Texas?
    Anyways Walmart and the IGA sells good chili.
    I just checked and I don’t have any at the moment but I noticed I have a lot of pork and beans.

    I'll leave real early in the morning. Cats didn't wanna sit in Van Horn for 2 days.

    The last time I stayed in Van Horn it was my birthday and I grabbed a reset and drank a lot at the bar.

    I was running team with the training company. If we had a load to Laredo with too much time on it we would go squat in Van Horn. 4 out of 4 times doing that we would get a call that a solo was dragging a trailer to us that would be late unless relayed to a team. Solo would get stuck shuffling our load down and wait for another load out. Felt a bit guilty about shafting the solo but that is life as a solo at that mega.......

    And the couple of times we did run a hot/rescue one down to Laredo... the night crew would find us a load (After Laredo dispatch left for the day) and bust us out of Laredo cause we were of no use as a rescue rig down there.

    I have arrived at that oasis of the highways.

    The cats would like to take a moment to remind everyone to eat healthy, and they recommend KEN'S.

    There's only a few holes that are unholier than this #### hole. This place makes the J in Phoenix look like a resort on the Riviera.

    Add for some reason known only unto Almighty God, they had like 7 miles of 10 closed in El Paso, like right in the middle.

    I got off and went through town. There are still people sitting in the same spot they were 4 hours ago, I've no doubt.

    That's what you get for going to Texas. Nothing good ever happened to me in Texas.
