Left Maybrook, NY early this morning and drove the rest of the way to Wallingford, Connecticut, and delivered one of the excavators and the two extra buckets. Then drove to Plainfield, CT, and delivered the other excavator. From there I drove back to Carlisle, Pennsylvania to the Daily yard and loaded a Volvo L90H Wheel Loader that is going to Jacksonville, Florida.
I stayed in the Daily yard for the night. I'm exhausted!!! Heavy traffic all day. 510 miles of it!!! Good night.

I was on the road at 1:30 AM. Light snow almost all day. In the first 120 miles of Pennsylvania on I-80 I passed 14 semi truck crashes. About 1/3 of them were not upright. Most of them had been there a while. Others just happened. Didn't see any car crashes, only semi trucks. I stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Maybrook, New York.

Got some more snow yesterday. Left this morning and it was snowing. Went to AIS in Grand Rapids, MI, and loaded a John Deere 75G Excavator that is going to Wallingford, Connecticut.
Then went to Michigan Cat and loaded a John Deere 85G Excavator and three buckets that are going to Plainfield, Connecticut.
Left there, still snowing hard at times. Passed a lot of cars spun out in the median and off the side of the road. Passed a few semi-trucks jackknifed off the road and one on its side. Continued on to the Middle Ridge Service Plaza on I-80 in Amhurst, Ohio for my 10 hours.
