I left at about 10:30 PM CST last night in the rain. It rained steadily until about 10 miles east of Lafayette, LA. Then it was very heavy rain with thunder and lightning. That lasted until I was well past Lafayette. Past quite a few wrecks that appeared weather-related. I was doing great until I-10 in Texas west of Beaumont in the construction zone. Came to a total standstill. Sat there for about an hour. Have no idea what caused it.
We finally got moving again and I continued to Carmine, TX, and delivered the wheel loader in thick heavy mud. Made a mess out of everything. From there I drove back to Houston and went to the Daily terminal. Arrived there with only 22 minutes left on my clock. 674 miles today. I'm tired. Going to sleep now. Good night.
