    btown isn't bad. i did food delivery there in a day cab and 48'er for years. i will say this...campus deliveries during the school year are far more dangerous than any low bridge. the scenery is distracting and mofos be walking out in the street all the time looking down at their phones.

    some indiana roads are terrible, others not so much. the interstates are horrendous and the state roads are easy. i wish indiana could take a page from ohios book on MILLING MACHINES. often times the patch is worse than the hole they tried to repair. bridge joints? pff they don't even try to smooth the interface.

    The state sold the turnpike to a private company. That's why the costs are skyrocketing.

    Last time I was through there, they took out the port-a-johns at the truck rest area.

    Dunno, I'd rather squat under the trailer, than in some of the porta potties I've seen.

    Some of those places caused us to buy a human toilet for the sleeper. Then buy bags of human litter etc to go with it. Among other things. Such a to do to ensure a clean dump. Where none is possible in some of those places.

    I saw your username and wanted to let you know the crappie sure were biting tonight here in Indiana. Couldn't put the pole down because as soon as the minnow hit the water they'd take off with it. They were small, Under 5-6 inches, but it was nice getting out there.
