    I rolled in at 19:30 last night. Dispatch wanted me to take a 96" crate to Air France.
    I asked if I could do it in the morning. Because I KNOW as long as it gets there by 10AM it WILL fly. Dispatch says "I tried but they got to have it today. So I hooked the trailer at 4:55 ticked off the SDV dude by getting there at 5:10 and got it delivered.

    After dinner and two "Big Bang" episodes on TBS I crashed hard.

    This morning have to change insurance. Gonna be a bit late to the truck stop.

    IF the company ever trips to it they will be mad. But we got 100K Insurance (Company wants 250K min) but went from 360something per month to like 80something.
    Cross that bridge when I get to it.

    Rolled in 19:40 after a total of 10 for which I made probably a wee bit better than $200 before the company takes their bite.

    Have an 8AM pick up of 15xx# with a 10AM cutoff. Piece of cake with that shipper!

    Were it SDV I'd be lucky to get away from there by 9:55!

    Too bad I couldn't wait for you. I delivered the first half of this load in STL and now at the IA/MN border headed for MSP to drop the rest.



    Well, she does have a little east to go. :biggrin_25522: Plus, on 44, the choice is east or west.

    I love defended a lady's honor. :biggrin_255:

    Not sure why you are going that far east out of route.


    I'd personally head right up MO13 and take 35 north. But then again, I have relatives on that route too. AND the IFTA rates are lower than driving ILL.
