Well first off, I need to say I'm sorry for not updating this blog lately. It's hard now that I have lost my photographer. I have to do all the driving, take pics, cleaning, cooking and then upload pics and write funny things to keep you coming back for more. I've been all over the place in the last few weeks. I went from Utah to Washington. Washington to Utah. Utah to Idaho 3 times. Utah to Wisconsin.
Wisconsin to Michigan, Back to Illinois and picked up a load of Hershey chocolate secret ingredients, that goes to Pennsylvania. I'm in Ohio right now. Will be in PA. tomorrow. The weather is starting to get cold and I know that winter is on the way. I'm using the heater in places, that just a few weeks ago I was using the A/C at night to sleep. Enjoy the pics!

Chicago Toll Gate

No traffic here. It took me 3 1/2 to go 11 miles. Between all of the construction and the idiot drivers, I don't know how people live here.


The "L"
The people up in the train are fairly safe. It's the poor white smucks like me in the ghetto at ground level unloading 44 thousand pounds of steaks that need to worry.
Keys are in it brother!




Truckers Feast
Tri tip, mashed potatoes & gravy. Notice I had to break out the good China and flatware. And no it's not Alpo. I eat maybe 2 times a month at fast fooders and in 6 months, I might have sat in a restaurant 4 times.
A delay in Idaho. Man I hate flats. This is one my trailer tires that decided to let go at 65 MPH. I don't like being able to read the name on the side of my trailer when trying to go straight on the freeway. I had 43,413 pounds of cheese in the trailer at the time.






This Lambo was no match for the Volvo. I had him on the run till he hit second gear. That was about all I saw of him. A puff of smoke and I could not get another picture of him. It was like magic!



This is from my travels last week through Wyoming. Fall colors are starting to show there colors. I was out running the first snow storm that started in Utah the day I left and chased me all the way through Wyoming. I out ran it this time, but I'm sure that I will lose that battle very, very soon
















Last week when I was in Utah getting my truck serviced, They sent me to Idaho to recover a truck that was dropped off in a truck stop. I was told it was for medical reasons and he quit. I was looking forward to do it because it is a truck just like mine, only newer and red,has the big Cummings motor and a great Jake Brake to keep you slow on the downhills. It did pull the hills fast and then would just cruise down them, But this truck only had 100 thousand miles on it and it was trashed. Trash everywhere, 4th & 8th gear stack was toast.
