    Satan himself showed up one morning at a little country Baptist Church. The congregation fled in terror. All except one old man.

    Satan asked, “You know who I am but you’re not afraid?”

    The old man said, “Naw, not really. Been married to your sister forty-seven years”.

    I RELIGIOUSLY update the Trucker Path app info about the truck stop parking status in the mornings when spots are rate and there are some pretty tired drivers needing a spot. Many times the TP parking status is 3-7 hours old when I start rolling, so I hope I'm helping.

    Me too. Truckers path really is helpful. Can't always trust the status but its an indicator to help when I'm coming up on that final decision..stop here or try for a few more miles..

    But y’all don’t roll till 0900.

    We don’t NEED an update, we already KNOW it’s 3/4 empty.
