Left a half hour before sunrise this morning.  Another uneventful day on the road.  Stopped for the night at a small truck stop in Greentown, Pennsylvania.

My favorite time of year!!!!!!!!!

Left a half hour before sunrise this morning.  Nothing very exciting today.  All back roads through Indiana and Ohio to avoid the toll road.  Seems like it takes forever to get through there that way.  Lots of stop lights that, of course, I got mostly red.  Stopped for the night at the Love's truck stop in Burbank, Ohio.

Went the rest of the way to Rockdale, IL and delivered the excavator.  Then went back to the TA truck stop to wait for my next load.  Fortunately I didn't have to wait long.  Went back down to Creve Coeur, Illinois and loaded a Caterpillar D6 Dozer that is going up to Milford, Massachusetts.  



Left there and drove to the Petro truck stop in Wilmington, Illinois for the night.

Was back at it again at 1:30 am.  I love being able to start that early!!  Scales are closed and minimal traffic.  Drove 663 miles today.   Stopped, with only 4 minutes left on my clock, at the TA truck stop in Morris, Illinois. I'll deliver in the morning not too far from here. But for now, I'm going to sleep!!!!

Loaded a John Deere 250 Excavator first thing this morning.  It is going to Rockdale, Illinois.



Got out of there in real good time.  No traffic issues today, and that is a very good thing.  Drove to the Petro truck stop in Knoxville, Tennessee. As soon as my ten hours are up I'll be back on the road.  That should be about 1:30 am.

Left a half hour after sunrise this morning and drove the rest of the way to Albany.  Passed a little wreck on the way.



Delivered the dozer.  Next load is tomorrow up in Kernersville, North Carolina.  Drove up there and will spend the night in the parking lot at the John Deere plant there.  Load first thing in the morning.
