Left a half hour before sunrise this morning. My escort was 45 minutes late so I had to wait at the State line for him. When he got there we left. Not too long after we got into Indiana we drove into post tropical cyclone Harvey. He was still dropping a lot of rain. Drove the rest of the way in to Louisville, Kentucky. Had to back inside a building when I got there.
But it was not a simple straight in shot. Had to go around a guard rail and a tank. Did that being 12 feet, 9 inches wide. That makes the mirrors not very useful since all there is to see is machine. This is the view after I got inside.
It took about four hours to get the wheels on it and then off my trailer. Glad we didn't have to do that in the rain!! Finally got out of there. My next load is back in Montgomery, Illinois at the same place I got my last load from. Was supposed to load Tuesday but it got pushed back a day until Wednesday. So I will have an extra long holiday weekend. I decided not to drive much more today in Harvey's rain since I was in no hurry to get anywhere. I stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Seymour, Indiana.
