I know you love your great state of Texas...but heck with that crap...LOL Corsicana waiting for dealer to get fixed...

Yep, "Don't mess with Texas". But I agree, better in your pocket since you are making your contribution to the local economy. Heck by the time you get her fixed you may have raised the gnp of Corsicana. *l*

I been talking to some locals here and it is so depressed...I am sure any business helps to keep them up and running..am staying at a privately owned older type motel...not the Ritz by any means...BUT the owner keeps checking to make sure everything is working...he is on the ball....

There is a lot to be said for the personalized customer service at some of "ma & pa" businesses.

Most care about it and want you back. The chains treat you like a number.

Hope everything works out tomorrow and you can get to work and quit slacking off!

In Hudson, WI @ the TA. Went to a county fair in Lake Elmo, Minnesota yesterday. Watched a demolision derby and some children doing an Irish Dance. Was a nice day. Hot though. Think we will move toward chicago today in order to get a load.
Any advise from you experienced ones on where to move. Dispatch has been saying to sit still all week end. I just don't think there is much freight up this way. But what do I know?
