I left at about 11:30 PM MST. Another very good night/day on the road. As I went through Amarillo, Texas, I stopped for lunch at The Big Texan. They are all decorated for Christmas. No one was doing the 72-ounce challenge today.
Delicious, as usual. After lunch, I continued on to the Love's truck stop in Quanah, Texas. Will be here until Monday morning. 640 miles today. Now it is time for some SEC football.
I left at about 2:30 AM MST this morning. Had a great drive through the Rocky Mountains on I-70. The weather was perfect!!! Didn't even need a jacket all day. Drove to Grand Junction, Colorado, and delivered the dozer. My next load was down in Durango, Colorado. That was about 4 and a half hours away. Had to go through Moab, Utah, to get there. Arrived and loaded a Caterpillar 315 Excavator that is going to Dallas, Texas.
I went to the closest truck stop to park. I was low on hours. It really isn't a truck stop; it is more like a convenience store with about 4 truck parking places. I was lucky to get one. I'll do my 10 hours (or so) and head out toward Dallas. 532 miles today.
I left at about 9:30 PM CST. Another good night on the road. Drove 549 miles to the TA truck stop in Commerce City (Denver), Colorado. I'll deliver tomorrow morning.
I left around 10 PM last night. Another good night on the road. Drove 568 miles to the Love's truck stop in Topeka, Kansas.
I left at 1:30 AM EST. Very good night on the road. Stopped for my 10 hours at the TA truck stop in Antioch, Tennessee. While doing my post-trip inspection found a very bad trailer tire.
My unloading appointment was for 10:30 this morning. I was there at 10:15. It still took them over an hour to unload me. When that was done, I drove down to the Port in Brunswick, Georgia, for my next load. When they came back from lunch, I loaded a Caterpillar D4 Dozer that is going to Grand Junction, Colorado.
After playing so well against Georgia last week, they really blew it this week. Very embarrassing loss.
