    I know some of you are east coasters, and that's why I didn't say all of you are that way.

    Is it just the camera angle or is that big elevator leaning?

    I lived up there. I liked the people, but you hang out with who you like But the taxes are stupid. The pa turnpike basically screws Maryland and philly. All goods to them are more exspensive. I worked in NYC, I got a step raise from 42 to 49k. 40%+ of the raise went to taxes. The mind set of taxing everything is just insane. I drove out of Rahway nj tank wash. All the drivers paid 8 to 12k a year in property taxes. Most lived in bungalows. Smh.

    I looked at a farm house in Illinois. 130k with an out building big enough for a truck, 5k a year in property taxes. 2 acres.

    We've almost concluded 3 of the weirdest days of our lives. The trip is finished, but it's still today.

    The OM is like-

    Cleaned up and organized my under bunk storage. Probably should have vacuumed before I took the photo.

    Booked my weekend load today. Picks up Friday morning, 100 miles away. Guy calls back an hour later. Doesn’t deliver till Tuesday.Wife wakes up, says you know you agreed to deliver Tuesday, and didn’t ask for more money? Yeah I know, I barely remember it, I was half asleep. So now I’m debating on driving home till late Saturday night or Sunday morning, Adding another 100 miles to the trip. Probably just Load and go. Maybe tinker with the Truck over weekend. It’s already 1260 miles including DH. I try to book 2 day trips on Mon. Wed. and fridays. Sometimes just have to go with the flow. Time to cut the grass, more tains coming.
