Got my first snowfall for the season today.   My truck was finished this morning.  Checked out of the hotel and went to the Daily yard.  I took a truck that had to go to International in Harrisburg and dropped it off.  Then got my truck and brought it back to Carlisle.  Then got another step deck trailer and went to JLG in Shippensburg and loaded a JLG Boomlift 860SJ that is going to Ocala, Florida.



I left there but didn't go very far.  Stopped for my 10 hours at the AC&T truck stop in Hagerstown, Maryland.  Didn't really want to go through Washington DC at rush hour, in the snow on a Friday afternoon.  I'd rather do that in the middle of the night.

 The truck is still in the shop and I'm still in the hotel.

 This morning I drove the rest of the way to Taylor, PA, and delivered the crane stuff.  From there I drove to the "home office" in Carlisle, PA.  After being dragged around in the mud it knocked the front end way out of alignment.  It was so bad that it really chewed up my steer tires. See the steel cords starting to protrude?


When I got to Carlisle they took my truck in and started to work on it.  They said I'll be here for a few days because it also was due for a bunch of service.  I gathered my stuff and went to the hotel where I'll be for a couple days.

This morning I drove to the Petro truck stop in Scranton, PA.  I'll deliver about 6 miles from here tomorrow.
