Yea. Take a month off, get it put deep in the ### right out of the box.
Those clowns having this ready a day late put me behind the 8 ball right from the go.
Still finished it today. 6 stops, 2300 miles. One was just F too. Like 15 miles each way down a gravel road lol.
The dude with my load back let me keep it, although I'll be a day late with all those. Might make the first one on time.
He's not pleased.
We're camped out on the border of the buckeye on the wrong side of 90 now.
Snownado's threatened all day. Drove through flurries. Hopefully we can blow this scene and get several hundred miles south tomorrow.
What if it Snows?

It’s too early for any real worries. My angst was just a join along. The only wild card is there was a change in upper management just before Christmas. The immediate problem is commiefornia locking us out and weather and some cancellations because of COVID paranoia. Both of my immediate bosses want to continue the program.

Snow squalls in NY, PA, and OH.
Particularly visibility-reducing east and south of Cleveland.
I finally had enough.
I'm at the TA off I-71 in Lodi.
The restaurant is open, no tables roped off, still limited menu.
FINALLY got my spaghetti and meatballs! Taaaaaaa-sty!
Of course, I had to check and make sure the peanut butter chocolate cake was up to standard.
It was.
I can stick around here 'til 7am, have a sit-down breakfast, and still be home before noon. Which is what I'm gonna do.

Leave this morning to head to Carson city. Get just past Colfax CA and the big ### snowflakes start to fall. I says WTF and pull over to check weather and road conditions again. Checked them 2 hrs earlier light snow flurries no biggie. Road conditions now say max chains from Colfax to NV state line say what. Plus 80 EB closed at Gold run due to 2 semi wrecks two locations.
So I says well lets slap some iron on and drive the 11 miles to the parking lot called 80 yeah no ripped a u turn and headed home. 3 hours later road was clear and partly cloudy, strangest storm I've seen on this hill in years.Guess I'll be going tomorrowJolliRoger, thelushlarry, Dave_in_AZ and 5 others Thank this. -

Well.
Got everything ready on truck and trailer, couldn’t find any air leaks, but we’ll check tomorrow and see if it held all air.
I called two guys I haul for and neither answered, nor called back after 3.5 hours.
So, I’m going to wait til Monday and see if something comes up, if not I’ll have to fall to the.... load board...Speed_Drums, JolliRoger, LoSt_AgAiN and 4 others Thank this.
