    Cool will stop there if my pickup is ready after I deliver tonight... says its not supposed to be ready until tomorrow but we will see. If not will have to park up near the shipper, but shouldn't be a problem since I'm delivering there too and can just bobtail out somewhere for the night if need be.

    Made my delivery up in WI and got my load out of there as well. Started my day a little earlier than planned so I ended up stopping around 2am instead of the planned 4-5am, so parking was tricky, tried a couple small truck stops that were full, and a walmart that was plastered with no truck parking signs, haven't found my late-night parking spots in this part of the country yet! But, got it all worked out and now I know of a couple places that have parking at 2am so next time around it'll be smooth sailing.

    Headed back into IL for the delivery tomorrow, then headed east. I'll probably be at the Gary OC tomorrow evening for my break.

    It's a mission trying to cross those potholes in Gary. I think potholes is a little understatement. More like craters

    I work for Roehl right up the street. I call it the swampholes street. Thinking of becoming a IC with Schneider.

    Hm. Well, maybe he will wander inside. Not that I would recognize him...
