Left a half-hour before sunrise this morning. Very short day today. Drove to a convenience store with a few truck parking places in La Marque, Texas. Deliver at the Pot of Galveston Monday morning just a few miles from here. So, here I sit until then.

Left at sunrise this morning. Another uneventful day on the roads. I like those. Spent more time on the back roads than I did on the Interstate. Stopped for the night at the new TA Express truck stop in Nacogdoches, Texas. Very nice place.

Got started a half-hour before sunrise this morning and drove the rest of the way to Chatham, Illinois, and delivered the crane. Next load is up in Davenport, Iowa. Drove up there and loaded a John Deere 648L Skidder that is going to the Port of Galveston, Texas.

Had a little rain last night but it had stopped by the time I left at sunrise this morning. Nice day on the road. No issues, for a nice change. Had to get through St. Louis, Missouri area and into Illinois before 3:30 pm. If I didn't, I'd have to wait until after 9 am tomorrow morning to go through. I crossed into Illinois right at 2:57 pm. I did good. Stopped for the night at the Flying J truck stop in Alorton, Illinois. The restaurant here is closed so I had Door Dash bring dinner. I should deliver tomorrow morning before 9 am if all goes right.
