Friday, February 14, 2020

I had no idea that where I was parked at the Love's truck stop I was right in front of a Thermo King dealer.  What are the chances of that happening????


I was there at 7:30 MST waiting for them to open so I could get my APU repaired.  They took me in right away and fixed it.  The fuel pump was defective and they replaced it.  I was done and back on the road by 10 AM MST.  Today was all mountain back roads in Idaho and Wyoming.  Here is a video of US-26 in Idaho not too far out of Idaho Falls.  That sky didn't look good.


The next video is on US-191 in Wyoming.  Beautiful drive through there.


And here is what it looks like at the Flying J truck stop in Rock Springs, Wyoming at 3:30 PM MST.  This is why I stop early.


An hour later...


Then an hour later the truck that was next to me left and another pulled in.  But the idiot hit my mirror. Fortunately, he didn't break it.



I-80 is closed between Rock Springs (where I am) and Laramie due to high winds.  They say it won't reopen for 14 to 16 hours.  It is very windy.  This truck is really rockin' !!!  I can see why they closed the Interstate.
