    Forget the road, that's just a headache. I'm waiting for the spring thaw to turn the "OC of a thousand lakes" into one giant mud pit. I like bacon but I don't want to live in a sty.

    You guys been to the Gary OC in the last few months? I run out of there, and was there when they had a grader trying to level the gravel part out. Now there's a valley between parking and drop lots and 10 foot wide potholes in the valley. Super fun when bobtailing. Feels like the trlr is gonna tip when you're loaded.

    like today and yesterday? Lounge is like a dirt sandbox. I make a concerted effort to grab one of the pavement spots and will go out through the in door to avoid the mud bog. Usually leaving before the shop gets in at 5am, by then those cones are magically transported out of the way!?!?!

    the PITA is going to come when they extend that third lane further down Williams Rd. Stops at just before that tandem killer bridge. All lanes are essentially open , they just need to get the final pavement cap down. Funny, I was complaining to another driver about a month ago that they had left the barrels up and lane restrictions, they very next day they opened most things up. North of williams is still one lane but south to 270 is two lanes each way.

    Luckily I did a 9am drop this morning. Back area only had 1 trailer out in the open but I can see where that place would be a nightmare after hours.

    And yes. That Chip trailer is still in the way

    Gary's cafe is starting to get offended when you order a cheeseburger when they have all that other stuff premade. Two times in a row now I order a cheeseburger and they use high pressure sales tactics to order something else

    I saw the young kid put almost a quart of water into the already cooked gravy so that there was enough to pour over the Salisbury steak.
