Short day today.  Drove down to the Flying J truck stop in Evansdale, Iowa for the rest of the weekend.  Deliver Monday morning just down the road from here in Waterloo.  The trees are starting to change colors here.

Drove over to Aberdeen, South Dakota for my next load.  Went to a place that makes those huge blades that are on the towers that are part of that "green energy" crap.  Anyway, I picked up a bunch of metal stands that the blades sit on when they are on the ground.  They are going to Waterloo, Iowa for a Monday morning delivery.



Stopped for the night at the Flying J truck stop in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Got started early again. Drove into Tooele, UT (just west of Salt Lake City) and delivered the snow pushers.  Fortunately my next load was just around the corner from there. I wish that happened more often. Picked up a load of insulated panels. They are going to Killdeer, North Dakota. Yes, there really is a town named Killdeer.



Stopped at the TA truck stop in Salt Lake City for the night.
