Parked Here for the Night

hanging around the Petro in Remington IN
have a midnight at Trader Joes in Minooka
but you couldnt get me to stay in Minooka or Gary
and I will head to HT in Green Bay afterwards
so time management isnt an issue

 

I may be parked literally on 80 for the night ... what the hell ?
traffic at a stand still for over a hour so far ...

 

80 is a long road might you narrow it down just a lil?

 

They had to change the rubber piece around my windshields so the truck had to sit to let the adhesive cure right, they couldn't do the window till Saturday.

 

Stopped at the truck parking area in Cumby, TX. Had to detour around ranger hill, apparently a big truck and a 4 wheeler tangled and shut down the whole eastbound side.

Got the grand tour of Breckenridge, Mineral Wells and Weatherford. I can now die a happy man....

 

Saw another accident at the picnic area at the 10/20 junction earlier. Big truck came off the interstate, and either dozed off or lost his brakes, sheared the right side of his trailer off on a parking lot, knocking a car off the top, then came to rest against the right side of a parked trailer. Crap from the trailer was everywhere.

 

That wreck was a mess,seen pics online earlier. Looked like a can opener went postal on that trailer.

 

Hahaha. Good call . Lol
I was in Iowa at the time , sat for 2 hrs because a truck decided to roll over , well the truck didn't do it on its own . The driver decided it was a good place to give his truck a nap.

Illinois rest area now. After seeing all the wreaked up trucks last night , I may never park in a truck stop again.

 

Haven't posted here in I think the last 4 days. Lotsa tight windows and multiple drops last week. So close to home...yet so far. South SF pick up this afternoon/evening/midnight. Hucking a load to Phoenix. Canada is starting to get above freezing so I must fly south for.....the summer? Yeah my girl and I even have a name for it. I-10 season.
Also while I'm sitting thinking. Who designed the cup holders on the Pete 386. Seriously its all the way to the right #### near on the floor. I have to reach around the shifter to use it. The other option is the one on the floor next to the passenger seat. Which in a narrow cab Pete means I trip on it every time I move. What is a thirsty guy to do.

 

OH rest area . Yup no more parking in truck stops at night , ill take a hour break or a little longer instead of a 30 and eat and shower then park at rest areas. Lol
