Stan, I unloaded in New Orleans this morning and not a drop. I then got to Canton in the afternoon still nothing. I get to the Petro around 5pm and the sky just opens up. Oh well.

That's about right! Them thunderstorms take all day to build up, then pop the cork just before sundown...keep it going into the late hours...then clear up.
We are close enough to the water, here where I am, that the storms are fairly low here...so we generallt just get rain and lightning strikes.
By the time they get up towards Natchez MS and Jackson MS..they have gained some altitude....and some atitude!!

Tell me about it! Last night just outside of Jackson I watched a lightning bolt hit a 4 wheeler about 2500 feet infront of me! Man that flash was blinding, he put his 4 ways on and pulled over, I didn't see any noticeable damage to his car, but he appeared pretty shook up.

Then ontop of that the wind kept blowing me around, I had to stay in the hammer lane cause the gusts would blow me to the granny lane every now and then.

Mohegan Casino, Uncasville, CT.

Freakin' slots don't take coins.

Food is unbelievably expensive, but I gotta eat.

I hate the traffic in the Northeast.

I like that every travel plaza has Starbucks Coffee.

I am not driving trucks right now, just road testing the new-hires. But I did fuel my pickup at the Flying J in Alorton,IL this morning. Does that count? This Flyng hook does not fill up with trucks at anywhere near the rate the other one does at I-270 and I-255.

Sitting in shippers yard in Stroudsburg, PA. Stopped at Wendy's to get something to eat. Only two analog stations on the TV and neither come in very good. Oh well, might as well get caught up on sleep. At least no one is sitting next to me idling.
