    More per diem deduction!!!!! Of course it doesn't count for 2020, but we'll take it.

    Speaking of LA, any recommendations for a good overnight as close as possible to Wilmington (Long Beach) coming in from I-10?

    The OM is NOT pleased about coming back to the vet for electrolytes.

    She's bounced back amazingly.

    No bad weather in that lane but probably the worst drivers in all of the country running that route

    Well I would’ve passed them, but that’s where we were stopped. LOL

    Vet visits and injections. The OM is not going to forget this. You have to sleep sometime.

    What is with it with the epic freeway shutdowns this year? I was in that gallup mess . now otters in the texas mess? Can we start a gofund me to raise money for these bonehead states to invest in a snowplow? How comes when its forecasted to snow in montana or idaho 6+ inches the roads are plowed nicely and taken care of ? Then it snows 1 inch in gallup and 3 inches in midland and they shut down the entire southwest freight movement for 3 days or longer. ... Pa is no better , seems lots of states are just giving up. Maybe its time for stricter cdl standards and driver license standards to get the morons off the road? Something needs to change.
