My favorite Flying Pilot coffee was their limited, one time only Ethiopian coffee. Kwik Trips have a quasi Kona which is good. And McDonalds isn't bad. Most truck stop coffee today is much better than the burned mud served from Bunn hot plates.

Bottom line is you didn't read my entire post. I did come back in the morning. I was ½ hour later than the scheduled delivery time. This was a recovery due to a breakdown. Time was lost before I recovered the freight. Even if I had made the scheduled delivery time, receiving had been closed...
