Friday, August 1, 2014

Left real early this morning and drove to the GE Wind Energy plant in Tehhachapi, CA.


Loaded a wind energy hub that is going to Groom, Texas.



 Got out of there in great time.

Passed Edwards Air Force Base on CA-58.



Passed a solar energy farm on I-40 on California.


Everything was going smoothly until I got to Arizona.  At the Port of Entry they found that my permit said that I was 11 feet wide.  They measured and found me to be 11 feet, 6 inches wide.  Had to get a whole new permit.  ALSO there is an 11 foot width restriction on I-40 east of Flagstaff because of a lot of road construction.  I will have a nice long detour around it.  BUT I can only use the detour on Saturday IF I have an escort. Can't go anywhere on Sunday.  Monday through Friday I can use the detour without an escort.  MORE STUPID, STUPID REGULATIONS!!!!  Now what purpose does that serve?  Makes no sense whatsoever!!  So I drove to the Little America truck stop in Flagstaff for the weekend.  I'll have more posts on Saturday and Sunday.
