 I left this morning at 6 AM MST.  Went through Albuquerque, New Mexico, at about sunrise.  Saw 10 hot air balloons over Albuquerque.  Then, east of Albuquerque, I saw a lone straggler.  Had a very good day on the road. Drove 684 miles NON-STOP to the One Nine truck stop in Bowie, Texas.  Arrived with less than 30 minutes left on my clock.  Going to do a reset here tomorrow. Then I'll go deliver on Tuesday morning.

I left at 1 AM MST this morning.  Spent a lot of time on two-lane roads through the Utah mountains.  Stopped at the Petro truck stop in Milan, New Mexico.  462 miles today.  Now it is time for some good ol' SEC football!!!!

Last night I left at about 9 PM PST.  Another uneventful night on the road, just the way I like it!!  Drove 572 miles to the Love's truck stop in Fillmore, Utah. I was done and in bed by 8 AM MST.

 I left last night at 9 PM PST.  There was light rain all the way through Washington State and Oregon.  Went over Snoqualmie Pass again and then Cabbage Hill.  No problems on either one.  The mountains take a lot longer to go up and down with a full trailer.  Arrived in Boise, Idaho, at rush hour and had a bit of slow-n'-go traffic.  Stopped at the TA truck stop in Boise, Idaho, for my 10 hours.  475 miles today.

 I went over to the Port of Tacoma and loaded a Caterpillar 966 Wheel Loader that is going to Fort Worth, Texas.

I left there and got in a lot of bumper-to-bumper traffic on I-5 between Tacoma and Seattle.  Drove to the TA truck stop in North Bend, Washington.  Had to stop there because there is a 10-foot-wide curfew just before the state line that ends at 6 PM PST.  So, when my 10 hours are up, I'll head out again.

 I delivered the forks first thing this morning.  My next load is at the Port of Tacoma, but it isn't ready yet, so I went to the Love's truck stop just down the road from the Port to wait.
