    Red if you actually find a non pay spot at that TA....run in and buy a lottery ticket! Considering they've made the Entire isle on one side pay spots......McAllen Tx.....where its only 42....but it was 22 in the Alamo this AM...so guess its a step up...lol.....:)

    Parked at the J in Grand Forks ND.....cold as all get out tonight. I drove from Madison Wi to Fargo ND,dropped that load and got an empty and headed to Grand Forks to get loaded in the AM. Hit a lot of snow, hi winds and white out conditions but all the problems seemed to happen after I was through there. I heard reports on the peoplenet how bad it was in a certian place but I was past that point already...
    Good timing or good luck.... Either way I am safe and warm!!

    At the house till Monday I think. Going to Texas for 3 weeks starting then. Moving killers into San Angelo, that's the whole reason I bought my new wagon. I like it but it leans way more than my old Merritt. Other than that I really like it.
     
    Dinomite and Al. Roper Thank this.
