Left this morninng a half hour before sunrise and drove up to Wayland, Michigan to a casino. They are building a big addition to the complex. Delivered the two A/C components and left. Next load is tomorrow morning in Oswego, Illinois. Headed down to Illinois. On the way passed an RV that had some difficulties. The axles came off!! Caused a 10 mile (16 km) traffic back up. There was a TV show a few years ago titled "Wrecked". They followed crews from a wrecker service around (just like the show "Cops" except with a towing company). O'Hare was the company that was featured on that show.
Took a while to get past that, but finally did. Stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Morris, Illinois. After my shower and dinner came back to the truck and tried to start the generator. Dead! My batteries had run down just enough that it would not start. Had the TA Road Service truck come over and attach the cables. It started right up. No problem. Just another unnecessary expense. New truck batteries are coming in the not too distant future.
