Just got done with a load going to Saltillo, MS that dropped this morning. Wow, listening to those thunderstorms sure did make me sleep a little easier...It would have been better if it wasn't for the darn sinuses. Hoping this wam air will clear me up a bit, but at least I don't have to idle the van to stay warm. That is definitely nice. Does anyone (Panther drivers) know if the J on the west side of Birmingham is a good spot to sit. With the old system I used to be on the Birmingham board. I am only 20 miles from Birmingham, but the system is not showing me on the board. Guess it wouldn't hurt to sit here for a bit and if nothing happens probably be heading to Atlanta. current temp.....67F

Can't help you with load info, since we are in a straight truck but I might be able to give you an idea for your sinuses.
It seems this year has been horrible for me, with the dry heat and my sinuses have been killing me. When we were at Walmart, I picked up one of those Vicks Waterless Vaporizers and it works wonderful. I plug it in when I am going to bed (they last 6 to 8 hours) and I sleep like a baby and my sinuses are not all stuffed up.
My doctor also recommended the store brand Mucinex, you would be amazed on how much that helped too.

turned into pnemonia or bronchitis i'm not sure

Yeah, I'm going to have to get one of those too, but I think I might have a bite of pnemonia or bronchitis as well, so I have to dh home and see the doc and do some sleep catch up. Well, the weather was nice while it lasted.:( Seems like every time I get a decent load I have to dh when I'm done. It would be nice if I didn't have to dh home, but it seems that sleeping in van is making my cold worse. Well, better get moving again. Thanks 4 the advice. I'll have to get one of those when I install the extra battery in here.
