When I woke up this morning I saw that I had received a text telling me that my trailer was empty and ready to be picked up.  So I went back to the nuke plant and got my trailer.  Then I drove down to the Petro truck stop in Gary, Indiana for the rest of the weekend.  Now it is football time!!

Timed it perfectly again.  Got to Louisville right at 9 am.  No problems on the road today.  Drove all the way to the nuke plant in Bridgman, Michigan.  Dropped my trailer in their parking lot.  They were going to get it and take it back to the job site sometime tonight and unload it.  They will call me when it is back in the parking lot.  I went to the TA truck stop a few miles down the road for the night.

This morning drove the rest of the way to Brent, Alabama and loaded whats called a LP Casing Frame.  Have no idea what it is or what it does or what it's for.  It is going to a nuclear power plant in Bridgman, Michigan.

It does not look it but it is wide and tall.  14 feet 5 inches tall.  Because of that I need a pole car for the trip.

Had a good day on the road.  Stopped for the night at the Petro truck stop in Glendale, Kentucky.  Couldn't go into Louisville because of the curfew.  Will get a late start in the morning for the same reason.  Can't go into Louisville until after 9 am.

Yesterday I did routine maintenance on the generator and fixed (I hope) a leak in the roof of the sleeper.

Today I left and headed toward my next load.  It is tomorrow in Brent, Alabama.  On the way I stopped at the TA truck stop in Marianna, Florida and had routine maintenance done on the truck.  That took a lot longer than I had anticipated, but at least it's done.  Continued on and stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Montgomery, Alabama.
