Started this morning at 8:30 CDT and made it around Dallas without any bumper to bumper traffic. Nice!! Once I got into Oklahoma the route the state chose was ridiculous!! They took me off a nice four lane highway to a bunch of back roads. I zig-zagged through Oklahoma all day!! Most of the day was on skinny two lane roads. They even routed me over a bridge with a weight limit of 37 tons. I am 41 tons!! Some of the other bridges were not wide enough for me and a vehicle going the other direction to cross at the same time. In case you don't know, when you have a permitted load the State tells you what route you must take. No deviations allowed. I'm STILL in Oklahoma!! Ran out of daylight and stopped at a truck stop in Big Cabin, Oklahoma. I still have another hour or so in Oklahoma before I get to Kansas. The route in Kansas is more direct.
