Parked Here for the Night

I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt and all the locals are bundled up. It's 60 degrees with 52 as the real feel due to wind. These people would have died when I was up in Ontario, OR when it was 0.

 

Ohh... Wish I could stay here to meet you guys... But will leave at 5 am to deliver in Tulsa...
Don't know where will be going next... Will have about 7 hrs from 70 after delivery... And gaining only 4:30 hrs on Wed... But I am hopeful dsp will find me something good to keep me busy for the week...
The one thing I like about his time of the year is that many truckers go home to spend time with their folks... and there are less trucks on the road and more empty spots at the truck stops... LOVE IT!!!

 

Rocks is shivering just thinking about you

 

Of course they are all bundled up... 60 degrees IS cold... 0 degrees??! It gives me frostbites all over just thinking about it...

 

I turned the bunk heater on and set temp for 79... To the heck with the cold... I want to feel warm... really warm...

 

Yes... let's stay in touch.... Depending on what time I get empty and how long dsp will take to give me another load assignment... I may go to nearby truck stop....

 

I can almost "feel" your pain man...
I am thankful "my" truck here has stopped with those emissions problems... at least for now...
Hey, these are the times we can be thankful we are NOT O/Os....
But hey, if this truck of yours is not going to get any better, your boss gotta assign you a newer truck... hopefully with no EPA issues... come on... how can one work like that...?

 

Ludlow for the night. 2 minutes left on the 70. Drop in La Area in the morning.

The blowing snow was "interesting" in NM and east AZ this morning.

 

Stopped for a few winks, at a rest area around the 100 on 64 in Ky. Bout 2 1/2 hours out from first drop. Gonna try to get 4 off then make it up to Clearfield tomorrow. Guess I will have to hustle a bit. Been raining and windy all day. Check y'all later.
