I hate going east. It seems you’re already late before you get started. Since I was loaded late in Vegas, I missed the closing time in Denver and had to unload this morning. Drove 700 miles to Iowa. All legally, thanks to 75 mph speed limits in Colorado and Nebraska! I’ll deliver in Minneapolis then haul buns to Chicago for early Friday for two drops.

Cindy sounds pretty excited about starting school. It won’t be the same on the road without her. This week is busy and it’s paying okay, but it’s not great for all the LTL and extra stops I’ve got on. The problem has been it’s busy this week, but we sit for another three or four or more days waiting for something decent.

It’s late and thank goodness Cindy loaded me up with food! Even Willie is enjoying scrambled eggs that were leftover from last trip and a left over pork chop. We’re all eating good, going for walks at rest areas and taking lots of naps (at least Willie is) and we both miss our partner.
