    I'm going back to Seattle, I really want to know what mistakes I made in a past life.

    I just looked at idrivearkansas. still some stopped traffic around the 220 on I 40 but the road is clear. By the time you get there it should be fine.
    I 30from little Rock to the Tx line at Texarkana is clear.
    Near exit 31 in Hope:

    40 degrees and taining good today an hour or so south.

    You should be good as long as you avoid the snow covered passes and the homeless gangs once you get there.

    Interesting side note.... Wife is starting a new job. Gal that had been doing it is moving to Seattle because there are places available that take pets and the rent is now about the same or less than out here. Demand side has dried up as people flee for their lives or realize they can have life rather than an existence.

    O.K. my scam alert is going off........ How many days are they tying up the truck?

    That smells like a load with a dozen drops involved. And every drop will suck up a day checking in, off loading, and checking out again. and can't get to the next one before they close for the day. May be 2739 direct to VA but how many of the customers are not on the direct route.

    I don't expect any answers. Just I can smell the marketing BS from a thousand miles away on that one.
