Forgot to mention that when I came out of the restaurant yesterday at noon, I noticed my glasses were falling off my face like when I get to sweaty ... or they are broken. Not sure when it happened. They weren't completely broken but the frame was loose. I was able to use them until the evening when they broke and I was trying to sign for our food without glasses.


No breakfast at this place, but BB hadn't eaten all of her food last night so we split it. Not nearly as nice today, foggy and cool, but still nice sitting on the deck. We also went for a walk. It was only about 15 minutes because that is all the beach that was sandy, from there we would have had to either climbed on the rocks one direction or walked in the water the other direction.


We needed to have one rental car back by noon today so we picked the other one up by 11. While we were there someone came in driving on a flat. Guess something was also wrong with the spare. It looked like they only had a few feet left and they would have been driving on the rim.


After dropping the other rental car we headed north to NC. We weren't where we thought we were when we stopped for food. Not a big deal, what was was a lot line for food at Wendy's so we left. Waste of time on this rental. A few miles later we stopped again at a Wendy's, this time no line but the place stunk. When I went to use the restroom, the guy standing in front of it said "You don't want to go in there ... " So I didn't. Not sure what the issue was.


Right before we got off the freeway we stopped at a rest area by Ocala. Then it was a few hours on non-freeway before getting back on I-10 by Baldwin just west of Jacksonville.


No work yet, we are just heading to NC in hopes ...


We had looked at either Atlanta or Charlotte, and decided on Charlotte. So we got a one day rental to there which is why we are pushing it. Once there we would decide where to go. Then at 4 pm a run shows up to Omaha and I grab it. We have work. And it is only 40 miles from Charlotte. At first we were going to use the truck to backtrack but decided to pick up yet another rental to use for a couple of hours, it'll be about $40.


Dispatch told me a few times "This truck can not be driven over 75 mph or you will get changed a $100 +." Not a problem, I may not drive it over 60 mph. We have three days to go 1,100 miles.


Stopped again at the welcome center to GA. Then didn't stop again until just south of Savanah. Thought we would make it further but the mileage / range kept dropping. Stopped at a Loves in Richmond Hills.


Driving in the dark, we don't do much of it and this might be the reason why ... We come down the ramp and stop and the stop sign, I see in the distance someone coming from the right and no one from the left. As I'm taking a left turn BB yells "LOOK OUT." So I swerve into the on coming traffic lanes to the left, thinking that car was coming faster than I thought. Nope, she that I was going to hit the median. By now there is traffic coming so I take a quick U-turn to get going the right direction, then a second U-turn to go where I should have gone the first time.


Then we fueled at Love's and got McD's. Then something I had never seen. BB opens her sandwich to make everything fit and finds a 1/2 a chicken patty. Someone had cut a patty in 1/2 and that is what she got. She went back in and it would be another five minutes until they could have one ready so she settled for a hog dog and a banana.


... Then when we get near our motel we are supposed to take 175A ... and the GPS is telling us which lane to be in ... expect it is not there. They had redone the road since the GPS was updated and we had to go five miles down the road and come back. There isn't much for motels and we had already reserved this one, just before we missed the exit.


Quality Inn in Orangeburg for the night and then off to Charlotte in the AM.


No truck for BB, and we will wait and until Monday and see if we head home from Omaha or we head back out. We still have a week before I wanted to be home for the other company.


We already have a fifth rental car lined up out of Omaha, we were able to get one going to Mason City for about the same price as back to MSP so that makes it easier to head out again. Right now there are runs to southern California. We will have to look at the fires before we head. We'd have to be able to deliver by Friday ...
