    About 8-9 years ago I had a delivery to a produce place behind the bus station in LA. There was a pile of trash sitting on the corner where I needed to turn. I started to run over it, but decided to make a flip and come back from the other direction. I had to wait on the street for a door. It turned out that pile of trash was some guys home.

    2 days ago it was raining pretty bad on I-40 AR.... saw a truck that ended up in the median.... when I passed by it, the flashers were on and the driver, seemed to be a man in his 50's was still sitting on the driver's seat... his head down... not sure if his eyes were opened or closed.... the traffic was very slow... I would have gone to the driver to see if he needed any help but since I was on the left lane, and there was no shoulder, I wasn't able to stop, so I kept going.... that accident was showing on Google maps, and I believe someone may have called for help....
    Didn't take any picture cause I felt so sad and not in the mood to post that... :biggrin_25513:

    Wish there were a swimming pool here... I miss swimming... it's hot, humid and I need some activity.... but all I did was to walk around this hot parking lot....

    Hey @Zoltan1a ... are you still at the beach? If so, I would love to trade places with you... :rolleyes:

    Finally my DSP found me a load.... but I sat at truck stop and waited for 4 hrs after empty.... :biggrin_2552:
    This didn't use to happen when I was in my other DSP's board....
    Oh well.... maybe there were more trucks in that area than loads...
    Anyway.... now I am here... outside shipper's gate...

    My appt. is for tomorrow at 1 pm but hopefully someone is late and they can load me early...
    There's a nice bike and walk trail down there along the little river.... So, I walked around to move my legs a bit...
