I'm still here at the house.Changed oil in the van, went over to my parents and spent all day trimming hedges,bushes,weeding, etc. Then their neighbor comes over and asks me if I want 4 tires and rims with hubcaps for my van for free? He is a retired Marine turned master woodworker so he has a e-350 he uses for his business. As we are loading these into my van, he tells me in a month we'll be doing this again. I'm like, what do you mean? He tells me next month he is buying new chrome wheels for his van, and he is giving me the chrome ones that are on his van now. They look like new.Awesome.God works in mysterious ways.

We are at the house, family stuff is over and back in service. We have had three load offers, turned down one and did not get the other two. Hope we get out without too long a wait.

Anyone else parked at the Mall of America? Took my post-load nap and will probably start trolling south and east in the a.m. It's been raining here since I woke up. I don't feel like putting on my galoshes and rain gear. So this may be the second time I've parked here and still haven't been inside.

Wish it was rainin here.......:(
You can have the rain I'm getting...It's been parked over my van since earlier today. It started to clear up in Morris, Ill and I left there to to go Gary, In and it hasn't quit raining here since I got here at around 7pm.....I haven't moved on the board either....been #2 on the panther board for the last 3 hours. I'm gettin pretty desperate here for a load since I haven't had one since Sunday. Well....I guess the black clouds are really over my van....LOL:mad::mad::mad:

There is a Wal Mart just about 5 miles after you cross in to PA where OH 14 turns into PA 51 Its within the 30 miles of Pittsburgh, and I always get good loads from there, Shippingport, Ellwood City. Just an ideal.
