Back close to New England now in Indiana, tons of traffic, crap on the CB and piece of sh** roads. I swear, one more time through this crap hole of America and I'm moving to Kansas. tootie

My son went there for an Eagles game for his 16th birthday.....he said the fans made it the most horrible experience of his life. He still likes the Eagles but will NEVER go to another game.....he hopes one day they move somewhere else. tootie

No body plays those games like they do on the right coast, especially from the beltway north. :wink: And don't forget you get to pay to participate. They make it really convenient by putting up little buildings on the interstate. :P

Heh... I have no problem with Philly, Camden, Trenton, Newark, JC, Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, Long Island.... you just have to know how to drive around here. Not meaning that you guys "don't know how to drive", it's just a different way of driving around here.

I went onto Google Maps and did a satalite view and the place looks easy to get to and a massive lot. I think Boston's produce market will always be the worst place I've ever had to get in and out of. You sort of just pull out and then someone pulls right up to you so you sit there and just stare at them like, I'm not going anywhere you dumb azz, you just blocked me in. I'll sit here till the cows come home so BACK UP!!!
And of course it rained cats and dogs last night so when I take the tarp off there will be nice little puddles of water that will all fall directly on me. Oh well, it will just make it that much nicer to get home after. I got a 50 pound bag of onions to split between the little dinner I go to for breakfast and the Greek sub shop so that should make them happy. This time I'll keep them on the back of the trailer on the way home instead of inside the cab. It's easy to get out of New England. I always get a load where I can take Rt 90 the whole way around all the bad stuff. The problem is coming home. I always seem to have to head right up 95 and into the fire. I need to find a truck stop close to where I'm dropping off Wed morning so I can be close or at least within 100 miles. Shouldn't be too hard. This is the one advantage of getting up real early and starting to drive. I always try and plan it so I'm the first to show up. If it hadn't been for the fact that they took so long to load me I would be dropping off mid morning instead and would be home today.

Not in the mood for all the traffic. I'm shut down at the last service center on 76 about 10 miles from where I drop off. They are open 24 hours a day so I'm getting to bed even earlier than I normally do then I'll unload and make my way through lovely NY during the wee hours of the morning.
Man, 76 is one long ass road through PA and you have to pay attention. Up one hill, down a hill, up one hill, down a hill....repeat about 1,000 times!!! I feel like taking the tarps off tomorrow and just dropping them on the ground and leaving them. Tarping onions has to be one of the most tiring jobs you can do unless you do crane parts like I do which is the number 1 pain in the azz. So off to bed then up early. No nap today by the way people. I drove almost 700 miles. Where's my cheerleader?
