    If winds are 65mph+ we don't drive boxes empty.

    I don't typically have a choice of anything but I70 for one customer. Just part of the deal here. I do lots of driving very early in the morning to avoid packs of traffic

    I think......I hope......we're getting closed to empty.

    All because I didn't violate my HOS. The punishment is real.

    The OM's meds are ready for pickup.

    I ordered the 3 other air bags for the suspension, 2 for the cab, Air filters for engine and cabin.
    Those are all ready for pick up.

    I-80 in WY is EASY to go around... There is almost always at least 1 route through the state that is open. Yeah they add a few miles, but I'd rather be rolling than sitting for a week.

    A few winters ago I got @D.Tibbitt through WY when most of I-80 was shut down...and he was able to deliver in IL before they even opened the road in WY. Since that time I have discovered a few other routes through WY, if one travels WY regularly in the winter it pays many times over to know ALL the truck legal routes. Last winter I went from ID to OH and back to ID, going across WY both ways, all while most of WY was shut down.

    The humidity must have gone up. Wife came home and opened door and windows to the front porch (passive solar heating). Now it is very difficult to breathe and energy I had is shot to heck
