 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.

I left at midnight PST and drove the rest of the way to Tukwila, Washington.  Went over Snoqualmie Pass along the way.  No problems at all.  I love driving at night!!  Was parked and back in bed by 5 AM PDT.  Time for a nap, then good ol' SEC football.

 Last night I left at about 9 PM MDT.  Another uneventful night on the road.  Finished off the day with a sunrise, but slightly foggy trip over Cabbage Hill (AKA Emigrant Hill) / Deadman's Pass.  Click on the link for more information.  Stopped at a truck stop in Pendleton, Oregon.  612 miles today.

 I left last night at 9 PM CDT.  Another uneventful night on the road.  Just the way I like it.  Drove 671 miles to the TA truck stop in Fort Bridger, Wyoming.
