    Parked for the night at Gee Cee's.....
    With 6 minutes left on the 11.

    Would be great but the restaurant is closed and home base is 9 miles/12 minutes away........

    That's the way I used to do it before everyone started to get all mad about it.
    I think the second to the last time he really got a good run at it.

    If it is anything like some of the locals here? That means comfortably late by 4 hours.

    When I first started. It was pneumatic tanker. But they had me do a few dry van loads. Hehe
    One receiver said: 963 DOT backing points!
    Another I told ahead of time. I ain’t no reefer driver. They said ok. Took me a bit to get on the dock. I went inside. Guy said: I’m a CDL holder. The important thing is you never hit anything.

    Yeah that was the first thing I checked. I delivered a couple of dozers near Santa Cruz the other day that was a bit hot driving through the active fire.

    Well just packed the wife off to the land of lost Canadians, maybe in another 6 months we can get things back on track and I'll join her in Minnesota.
