(Due to computer issues, this was not written up the day it happened. It was written up six weeks later, based on the stops that were logged)


Breakfast ? - Unknown


1st stop was the airport where I dropped BB to pick up the rental car. I did wait at the parking lot until she texted that she had a car.


2nd stop was the gas station for final dealer fuel. It was easier to take a right out of the station on a side street so that is what I did and then worked my way back to the main street where I could take a right where it was less congested.


3rd stop was the drop. I know where it is but I missed it so I had to go through another businesses parking lot to get back to the drop. This place wanted to check the generator but we and he did not know where it was. Or if it was. But he found a sales person who knew where it was and now we know which pipe is the exhaust pipe for the generator.


4th stop was the rest area near Benson. Still no 'must have' work so we are still waiting.


5th stop was a Cook Out in Graham


6th stop was the rest area / welcome center in Lambsburg VA. It was likely from here that I called to get work. We were now past all of the other shippers and this trip was still on the load board.


From there it is about 100 miles to the shipper. It's been a while since we have been to a new shipper, we have pretty much settled into the same shippers over and over again.


7th stop - Daleville. First stop was Sheetz for the restroom. Then the shipper. The address was close and then we followed someone into the lot. There are 100's of trucks in different lots and we are not sure if we are at the correct one. But the 1st truck in line is mine :) so that saved us a whole lot of time.


The whole time we were there we could not see buildings from anywhere in the lot, not sure if there was a place to drop paperwork or not.


There was not any place close to drop a rental car so we had decided to just keep the one car for the whole trip. It also may have been that we couldn't find a 2nd car in IL. That was the case last time. I think that time we had picked one up in OH? IN maybe, but before IL.


Truck is close enough to being on fumes that we stop again at Sheetz, this time for fuel. Busy, as it is the end of the work day but the pump I needed opened up and I put in enough fuel to get to the next Loves.


8th stop is another hour down the road at the Loves in Max Meadows for fuel. From there it is less than 15 minutes to the hotel.


9th and final stop is at the Sleep Inn in Wythville. From there we would have driven a few blocks away and picked up food from the TA. The Sagebrush restaurant that used to share the parking lot with the Sleep Inn closed during Covid and never re-opened. The TA has Popeyes, Subway and a Taco Bell. My guess is we got food at the Taco Bell.


Load board - anyone's guess
