Oh well, tonight I sleep, tomorrow I deal with this. Decision: stay in Wisconsin or head towards Minneapolis?

any auto loads to Canada won't deliver till Tuesday in Canada....you might get lucky there have extended run time to cross dock at TST...or they just might go LTL and you lose

Another wasted week behind me. 1 load and since then they have gone thru 9 full shifts if dispatchers and not a single call. Guess I should have followed fastman down to Vegas, at least he is bringing 6 dollars home with him.

Stopped and took a good power-nap during the night and delivered 6 hours early (heh its Friday) at Pilot by Huntsville for more sleep then shower ..
