 I left at sunrise this morning.  Very uneventful day on the road.  Stopped for the rest of the weekend at a small convenience store with truck parking in Butler, Georgia.

 Had a rough night last night.  Was sick all night and got very little sleep.  I was a little later than I wanted to get loaded because of it.  As the day wore on, I felt a lot better.  I loaded a John Deere 750K Dozer that is going to Hazlehurst, Georgia.



I left there and headed east.  Heavy rain from the Texas/Louisiana state line all the way through Baton Rouge.  Lots of bumper-to-bumper, stop-'n-go traffic from west of Baton Rouge all the way through and almost to the I-12 split. Stopped for the night at the Petro truck stop in Hammond, Louisiana. Hope tonight is better than last night.

 I left at sunrise this morning.  Drove the rest of the way to Houston and delivered the wheel loader.  My next load is also in Houston.  I tried to get there before they closed, but traffic wouldn't let me.  I stopped for the night at a convenience store that had a couple of parking places.  I'll load in the morning a couple of miles from here.  491 miles today.

 At about 12:45 AM EDT, when my 10 hours were up, I left.  Had a pretty good night/day on the road.  Had to stop and take a nap 'cus I got sleepy.  A Couple of places with bumper-to-bumper traffic from a few crashes.  Stopped for the night after 613 miles at the Petro truck stop in North Little Rock, Arkansas.

 Friday evening, I got an email that said my truck was due for service and that it had to be done in Carlisle.  This morning I went to Shippensburg, PA and loaded a Volvo L120H Wheel Loader that is going to Houston, Texas.



Then I drove back to Carlisle to the Daily yard and had the service work done on my truck.  They finished it this afternoon.  I'll head for Houston in the morning.
