    Thanks for the info. 3 or 4 weeks is a little long for me. Do they ever keep people out 1 or 2 weeks?

    The local/Canada runners out of Montana are home every weekend. They even deadheaded me 600 miles one Fri afternoon to get me home for Saturday.

    Got a load out of conover late this afternoon :biggrin_25511:

    I get to my truck.....Blue ridge didnt pull the brakes when they parked it!:biggrin_25510: Luckily for them there is the big curb on the top lot that stopped it from rolling back into the woods and down into the lower parking lot IDIOTS :biggrin_25516:

    Anyway i made it a whopping 10 miles from the terminal before i ended up on the shoudler....Lower Radiator Hose poped off lossed all the coolant AGIAN....so 1 hour later Blue Ridge sent the kid to come fix it....


    Then FINALLY i got to leave and made it to Baltimore, OH sniped the last spot at the Loves. I have 5 stops over the next 2 days in MI. 1 of which beeing the terminal.....HAD this load been loaded earlyer and dispatched earlyer this morning say left conover by noonish a driver could have done all 5 stops tomorrow and STILL had half a day left to reload...

    But instead I'll get to do 3 stops maybe 4 if terminal will do there stuff before they go home, then im Stuck in BFE at the terminal....no bathrooms, no showers NOTHING, until the next day when i run an hour north to do the last stop :biggrin_25511: Only way i can hit a TS is if i go 30 minutes out of route EACH WAY to get to one......

    Hopefully there is a walmart i can go to near the terminal for stuff for the night, i'll make my own #### shower at the terminal :yes2557:
