    I got up bright and early this morning to try to beat the Baton Rouge snow. I get in the seat my 5th wheel gauge is reading 40psi. It normally reads 62 on a full load. I start the truck and go out side and look, nothing. Trailer has an air leak. Get back in it's reading 60 and I have 41k in the can.

    Second thing I set my trailer brakes it seams to be easier on the fifth wheel when stopping completely.

    That is an awesome sight! I've been laughing my ### off, because the south got snow before most of New England! We still have bare ground here in Maine, which will change tonight. The fools in dispatch wanted me to do caustic to Woodland and Jay tomorrow, which takes 13 hrs. on a good day, never mind when its going to be slick. I got it changed to two Jay, which I know I can do legally. Monday I have two loads of propane.

    Thursday night I hauled water from a gas station in Belfast to Clean Harbors in So. Portland. First time going to a Clean Harbors facility.

    Yeah. Parked near the road. There was 3 here yesterday. Probably another 2 or 3 over at the loves. The receiver screwed up and ordered too much of one product that they were full of and didn't order enough for what they were out of
     
    77fib77 Thanks this.

    I took it like three times. There were some big lights from the hotel to the left(out of picture) that lit up the snow.

    I'm usually never in the truck when its parked there. Anything to get away from the aroma of piss.
