If you come up 13 and you’re not in a hurry, take 50 west from Salisbury out to Mardela Springe and follow 313 all the way up. That’s one of my favorite routes to run.
Where did you deliver to? PFG?
What if it Snows?

I’ll tell what slowed me down, years ago, I was at the J in Dallas, (had to fuel at Js, or 50 gallon max at Petro/TA)
Anyway, I had redone my loose leaf and had backed up as far as possible, so, I was going to send them all in, every copy, and showed a “Fly In” my boss had a plane, so I was going to say I just picked up this abandoned company truck and start with a fresh book, minus the time I’d have to throw away, a couple hours the day before, so I was going to show pretrip and fuel and be good to run.
In the process throwing away the real logs, sending the redone ones in trippak, a guy in mid 50s was being pushed in a wheelchair out of the store by an equally aged lady.
He had her roll him by me, and he told me he was a truck driver who used to do the same thing I was doing, run hard for the money, but his body rejected him and he had a stroke and was paralyzed on his left side.
Left arm was useless and had to keep that latex gloves on his left hand to keep his fingers from drawing up into a claw.
I sometimes think about that guy, never knew or even asked his name, don’t know if he’s still alive, but I slowed down because of him.
Now, now matter what I stop at midnight and start again at 5-6.
That is of course if I’ve been off or somehow got stuck on night shift.Feedman, Dale thompson, austinmike and 6 others Thank this. -

I know. It's getting to the point now that at least once a week I am hearing about either a friend or somebody I knew who either has died or was forced to retire.
