(if I coulda got rid of the firt 4 seconds and last 2 minutes of that..I woulda!)
Ya, it was Snoqualmie, that new Casino they are building. Maybe it was just that particular port I picked up at that was good. It was Dynasty. They sure had their act together though.

I would sure like to know what I have on back. Everything is in big dollar crates and custom made cases. There is one thing that almost looks like a part to a giant Vandigraph generator. All the paperwork attached is very non descriptive.

I think I'll head to Jubitz this morning and spend the day there. Time to do laundry and stuff.

I can't wait to fill up pulling 2 very light loads and doing 60 most of the time. I gotta hit up Walmart to restock my water too. It's getting close to the point where it will be cheaper to buy water at the truck stop instead of making a special detour to Walmart with the price of fuel.

Had I seen this before hitting the pillows...I woulda said that there is a Wall-E right off of I-5 as you drop down past Chehalis..the National Blvd. exit...on the right..plenty of truck parking there.

Made it to Jubitz and stopped at a Walmart on the way. My GPS knows them all so I just picked one on the way. They always have plenty of parking at 3am. Pretty much ate breakfast while shopping and checked out 5 empty wrappers of various stuff.

I'm going to hit up a Home Depot maybe today and buy a pressure treated 6' 2x12 and make a bench to attach to the bumper of my trailer in the back. I can only do so much with my weights inside the truck. It should be pretty easy what I have in mind so I may take a cab instead of driving.

Time for some real food while I do my laundry.

Nowhere near ya Steve...you're probably 2-3 hrs north of Sac-ra-pimento. Based on the hour's you keep you'll probably roll thru here in the depths of night. Give a call if it's tomorrow in the daylight sometime.

Seaplane?....no clue on that one unless you're talking about Howard Hughes' plane down in Long Beach at the Queen Mary. What the heck's in the water up there Steve-o?

I was maybe an hour away from Redding on Rt 5 looking down at water with lots of boats and there was this wicked big sea plane!! It was a lake, not the ocean. Big azz 4 engine sea plane, not the spruce goose.

Ya, I'm tired from reading all the bickering in the other thread so I'm off to la la land and will probably end up in Bakersfield tomorrow at the end of my day.

I'll honk my horn as I pass Sacramento. Then again, maybe not. I may wake up Alice and I'm afraid of her.

Thats Lake Shasta. It may be a firefighting plane loading water. They do that all the time there.

FYI... after you cross the Pit River Bridge on I-5 sb and head down the hill into Redding, watch your speed as CHP sits just around the turn on the right side of the interstate, radar on.

Ya, no kidding. There was a cruiser probably every 20 miles ever since I left Portland all the way here. All 4 wheelers pulled over and every truck doing the speed limit the whole way.
