    Made it 675 miles (all interstate / 20k pound load) to last service area on OH turnpike westbound (mm 20). 644 miles remaining to consignee located in MN west of twin cities. Permission to stay overnight at their property if I make it there tomorrow.

    Forgot to mention that after transiting Canada on last load, the US border cops X-ray'd & gamma ray'd my load of ceiling tile. Bet that made for a boring image...

    Good miles, and I thought I did good with 529 miles and shut down with 2hrs 15min drive time left. I was all Midwest you had mountains.

    It was pretty fun staying in 10th gear and passing other trucks going uphill through Pennsylvania :) Could not have done that many miles with a heavier load...

    I left CT this morning. We probably passed each other going opposite directions.

    Mohegan Sun has plenty of truck parking and I like them better than Foxwoods. :biggrin_25524:

    Most likely, I got 3 rows of crates untarped and then 30ft of my trailer is tarped lol. The tarped part is only about 8" off the deck. So real short load

    Huh small world I just entered PA going to jersey lol. At least it's the west side of jersey near Philly. Hopefully they don't have plans of me staying out here too long. Im at TA in berkleyville pa something like that xit29. Had a good amount of time but I have all day tomorrow and don't really feel like driving a couple more hours in pitch black mountains. No thanks, Monday morning delivery 8 am anyway. Got about 6 hrs to do tomorrow nice Sunday drive. ### ton on back roads though ugh.

    A tech this morning cleaned my lock jaw mechanism took like 30 min so she works fine and dandy. And Lantern sorry I left and didn't take pics. Sounds nice about time for renovations for Gary I just hope it's as nice as it sounds.

    And not because of short on equipment is why they're holding orientations dates back its bc of the "fiscal cliff" thing a ma bob. Taxes and how much companies will get banged by good ol' Uncle Sam. I don't really understand it completely but that's my guess.
