Location for the night

Portland OR

 

back in the Good Life City........trying my best to stay south of wherever the snow is and I'm doing a fine job.

 

Pride truck stop Chicopee, Mass. Ill have a 16 hour layover but it beats trying to get up here from NJ in the morning. I'm a natural born cheapskate but I'm always more than willing to pay to park here considering the location. Plus I never see garbage on the ground or have to play hopscotch around pee puddles. $10/24 hr. seems to weed out the scumbags like in @scythe08 's disturbing post. For any new guys or people who don't normally run the NE, it's at the junction of 91/291/90 outside of Springfield. Plenty of parking evrn late night. Not to preach or advertise but really this truck stop is the only part of Mass. that doesn't give me a headache so if you didnt know about it, now you do.

 

TA... Jackson, GA. I screwed myself. Going to take a 34.

 

TA Troutdale OR . ..

 

Pilot Marianna.

 

I shouldn't have been that surprised it was Dallas and the 5 truck stops there are beyond horrible.

Snyder, TX, peelot. Busted rear end to try and get home early and screwed myself as the shipper wouldn't take me early, which usually means loading is going to be time consuming and/or complicated

 

Since when did that place start charging for parking? Pay to park right next to a landfill lol

 

On the side of the road on 29S in VA.... hopefully not for the night. Waiting for a tow truck. My big serpentine belt decided to .. not sure. Not snap. Come off the rollers. Rather annoying since I actually did a full pre trip just an hour prior since the truck had been sitting for a couple days.

 

Home til Saturday. Wife has a medical procedure Wednesday morning, and I get probed on Friday. Might be the highlight of the month the way it's gone lately.
