    There is a small truck stop in Indiana on 74 at US63 Covington exit. The Beef House is on the other side of the road. Good place to eat.

    Not US 63, IN 63, which I took lots of times south to US 41 on my way to Jasper, IN to load turkeys.

    It's I74 exit 4. There is a Pilot there.

    US63 crosses north to south from north western WI through southeast MN,and Iowa.going into MO, haven't been south of there that I remember.

    I laid up short the first night. Stayed at a Petro on 70 on the IN/OH border.

    Then I ran to Iowa 80 and spent the day. (My delivery got bumped back). Then I took some back roads to Albert Lea, so I'd have fresh hours at delivery.

    Turns out I didn't need them. Someone in the chain didn't specify am/pm so I was at the consignee for ANOTHER 12 hours!

    So 19 hours later than planned,,,

    The next p/u was across town so I just stayed at the receiver for another few hours, then did the pu with fresh hours.
