Had to stop in Kentucky and wait for the KY permit. Fortunately it didn't take long and I was back on the road. I couldn't get into the truck stop that I wanted to go to because an oversize load truck carrying a large and long tank rolled over in the middle of the road at the entrance to the truck stop. The truck was on its side and the tank came off. Big mess. Didn't get close enough to get any photos. Blocked the entire road both directions and no one could get in or out of the truck stop. Stopped for the night at the Pilot truck stop in East St. Louis, Illinois. It is right across the street from the Gateway Speedway (NASCAR races there. So does NHRA). I can see the Gateway Arch from here.
Will be a late start in the morning. Have to wait until 9 am local time for the St. Louis curfew to get over.
