Had my truck back in the Daily truck shop again first thing this morning.  This afternoon I got the "good" news (I'm being very facetious!!) BOTH of my fuel tanks have cracks in them.  The truck has to go to Kenworth to have them replaced.  It will be out of service for about two weeks!!  J-u-s-t great!!!!  Daily set me up with a hotel room and a rental car.   

So I took the truck over to Kenworth and dropped it off.  Enterprise picked me up.  After finishing the paperwork with Enterprise I went to the hotel and checked in.  And here I sit.  Happy, happy, joy joy!!!!!!

Had my truck in the truck shop first thing this morning.  Unfortunately, they didn't finish it today so I'll have it back in there tomorrow morning. It also has to go to Kenworth for more work.  I was supposed to load in Portsmouth, Virginia (next to Norfolk) tomorrow morning. That's not gonna happen.  Holiday restrictions kick in Friday at noon in most states.  Makes doing anything difficult.  We will see what tomorrow brings.  Thought you would like to see the travel restrictions, so here they are.

Left at 1:30 am and drove to the Daily yard in Carlisle, PA. Once there, did a few things in the office.  Then went to Wal Mart, then did 4 loads of laundry.  After that, did some work on my trailer. Now I'm going to bed.  They are going to do more work on the truck tomorrow morning.

Little bit of a late start this morning then had to stop and wait for about an hour before I got to Connecticut.  Once my permit came in I was back moving again.  Drove to Milford, Massachusetts and delivered the dozer.  Then started towards Carlisle, PA.  Have several things to do at the "home office".  Stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Willington, CT.  Will be leaving here at 1:30 am.

Last night was a great way to start off the football season with a win over Miami.  They were very sloppy, but at least they won!

Got started at sunrise this morning.  Just before I got to the New York state line I looked at my permit again.  Saw that someone screwed up!  It was valid for weekend travel on Saturday until noon only.  Since it was not valid again until tomorrow, I turned around and went back to that truck stop that I started from.  Another wasted day.  Now I need a new Connecticut permit because it was only valid Saturday and Sunday.  Sooooo stupid!!
