Left the rest area just before sun rise and drove the rest of the way to Fostoria, OH and delivered the crane.  Next load was back in Cleveland.  It was actually in a town called Garfield Heights, Ohio.  Not an easy place to get in and out of.  In the city, with old, and narrow roads.  Loaded what they call a "torsion box".  I know, it's not a box!  Don't ask me.  I don't name 'um, I just move 'um.   It is going to Waukesha, Wisconsin. 



Easiest load I've ever had.  I was in and out in 15 minutes!!  From there I drove to ARI in Shipshewana, IN.  Going to have some work done on the truck tomorrow.

Went a couple miles over to Woodbridge and loaded a Terex RT230 crane.  Had to back in off the road through a gate, and up a dirt hill, then around a tank in order to load the thing.  Of course it was rush hour so I blocked traffic a bit while backing in off the road.  To make it a little more interesting, it was from my blind side too. 



Here is my scale ticket.


The crane is going to Fostoria, Ohio.  Drove to the rest area on I-70 just east of Columbus, Ohio for the night.  Will deliver in the morning.

Left very early this morning and drove to Hunker, Pennsylvania and delivered the genset.  My next load is down in Woodbridge, Virginia.  Drove down to the truck rest area on I-95 south of Washington DC for the night.  I load a few miles from here.  The curfew around DC prohibits me from driving with my next load until after 9 am and can't drive after 3 pm so there was no reason to go over and load today, I'll just do it in the morning.

Went to Newberry, SC this morning and loaded a Caterpillar C-18 Genset that is going up to Hunker, PA.



Made it as far as Jane Lew, West Virginia.  There was an 18 wheeler that overturned across the highway about 15 miles up the road and the interstate was closed.  Instead of sitting on the interstate for a few hours going nowhere I spent the night at the truck stop in Jane Lew.  Will get an early start in the morning.
