Drove over to Monroe, MI this morning.  Deliver just up the road from here Monday morning.  Will be here at the TA truck stop for the rest of the weekend.

This afternoon I finally had time to install the camera I bought at the truck show in Dallas.  It faces to the rear so I can keep an eye on the load.

Drove up to Kirkwood, NY for my next load.  A bunch of PVC Pipe going to Belleville, MI.




After getting loaded up I drove through the finger lakes region of New York state.  The fall leafs are gorgeous.  Tried to take some photos for you but they definitely don't do it justice.  But here are a few anyway.





Stopped for the night in Kingsville, Ohio at the TA truck stop.

Delivered this afternoon in Olyphant, PA.  Got there a day early!  Wasn't supposed to be there till tomorrow morning.  I love it when I can do that.  At the Petro Truck Stop in DuPont, PA for the night.  That's just south of Scranton.  They have good food here.  Had the buffet for lunch.  Salad, roast pork & gravy, mashed potatos, corn, dinner roll, chicken pot pie, chocolate chip cookies, and jello.  Full tummy feels good!!

Delivered the plastic mats to a park right in the middle of down town Atlanta.  After that drove up to Marietta, GA for my next load.  Picked up 4 rolls of steel.  42,000 pounds.  They are going up to Olyphant, PA.  That's just a little bit north of Scranton.

While on the road went past a semi truck on fire.  It was cooking good.  No fire trucks there yet.  Unable to get any photos of it unfortunately.

This morning they installed the 2 new storage boxes on the trailer.  One on each side.  Boy am I glad to have those!!  I really needed storage space.

Delivered in Ocala this morning then went to Seville and dropped off this trailer.  Glad to get rid of that one.  Didn't like it.  Then went to Orlando and picked up my trailer.  It is all fixed.  Then went back to Seville.  Had my truck DOT inspected in Seville and they did more work on the trailer.  Got 8 brand new tires on it.  Monday they are installing 2 storage boxes on it.  Spent the weekend with mom.
