    Make sure everything is stepped down when you drive down the frontage road. That is literally the worst road in Chicago. I used to go to Boasso and I hated it.

    Just trying to get a picture in my mind's eye... are your frontage roads there, kinda like our ONE LANE ones, like off 223 ... here in Ohio????? Wife used to service a boat place, that started with an S.. maybe Schomburgs? in Rosemont..... horror stories from 25 years ago.. Just trying to visualize.

    ps: She always bragged about eating at Nick's Fish Market... you Chicago guys ever been there? Probably out of our trucker price range; she was working for the boat company (SeaRay) back then.)

    Awh.. to be young again, .... oh well~!

    Unloaded in Cheyenne at Brenntag. Got a dispatch to Deadhead all the way to lock Haven, PA then come right back to Brenntag. Had to call and make sure that they sent me the right dispatch, as this has happened before. Nope it's mine. Brenntag is paying the deadhead miles.

    By this time next week, I will be debt free.
    Well still technically homeless, but I haven't decided what I want to do about that and where I want to live. I only came back to trucking to pay off debt.
    A Wonderful woman, who was more of a Mother to me than my own, went to Hospice and I'm headed home after I drop in Cheyenne next week. Not sure if I'm coming back.
    Missed so much spending 16 years in this truck.

    This trailer is loaded with 46,500 pounds of chemicals, I'm gonna be right on the button at 80k.. must have been some brain dead Schneider local driver had this thing loaded. I never would allow them to put this much on my trailer. But anyways I gotta pull this beast all way to Greenville SC
