After a not so hot week west of the Mississippi a move to Memphis paid off, resulting in a late nite load to the Greensboro area of NC. Will hang out in area tonight and move to visit brother in Charlotte for the the W/E if the phone dos'nt ring.

Drove up from Rock Hill, SC. What a horrible drive. Whiteouts, unplowed highways, accidents everywhere. Someone needs to turn the snow maker off.

At the Sleep Inn in Newark, DE. Picking up on Monday near here headed for AL. Looking at the weather it seems like that MIGHT be a hard run to complete. Snow/ice storms all over the place. Maybe it will pass before we get down there.

Joe, be careful down here. We will get some nasty weather tonight and tomorrow. And you know, down here it takes about 3 days until they finally can start those salt trucks, if they haven't sold them yet to raise some money. :)

Yeah, we are keeping an eye on that storm. We used to live down that way. It was ALWAYS funny to this Michigan guy to watch the "show" when even a HINT of winter weather was talked about on the news. You could NOT find a loaf of bread or gallon of milk with 500 miles of the town we lived in. Now just why milk and bread is beyond me but those items would be gone within 5 minutes of the news report!!

Empty in Sissonville WV...I asked the Recieving supervisor if I should stay in the area or move to wait for freight , he just laughed and said well you could be here a while if you saty here or head north, so south would be your best bet and that might not be the best...So after dinner at the Logans roadhouse in Charleston WV, the Walmart across the street will be where i go to sleep tonight and see how it goes in the morning...but...

I did have a pretty good 1st week to start the new yr..1639 miles and just a $1.20 a mile!! :)
