    I'd say Vegas, but The Golden Nugget won't take The OM. We're old school kind of people and The Golden Nugget / Four Queens downtown area is us. I think The D will take The OM and it's right there.

    So there's Laughlin. Laughlin is like Vegas for truckers plus The Colorado River.

    You should get a Connie or a dry box and call it a vacation. You can still buy pall malls.

    Everytime i see a driver with a connie loading behind me . i stare at it with drool coming out of my mouth , usually while im standing on top of the load rolling the tarps out. I stare at the connie like a kid staring into a candy store admiring all the sweet flavors

    We did really good mostly with the wind doing the night time thang the last two nights.

    We traveled the exact same highway except for a little over a 100 miles. Unfortunately it's uphill both ways. But MPG is holding at 8.

    I had the fun of being lied to today. I went to get my 120 done and trailer work. Go in there drop the trailer, since it hisses when brakes are applied. Call LS get stuff issued to start it. Two hours later go back in and ask where we are at with the 120 day. Im sorry we can't do that today. Well atleast it's a holiday weekend, hopefully it will be done on Tuesday. Smh, I'll have to bug them the whole day to get the trailer done.


    This was $20 dollars, I thought it was $8. Next time whole chicken boil it. Debone it all. Go rice n broccoli, mix it all. Better dog treat. Probably $7 and a ton more food.
