DATELINE: OAK GROVE, KY, 6:00 p.m. CDT
Miles Today: 76
Not much happenin' today. I got up, showered, had breakfast, drove the 3 miles to my delivery (it was indeed the facility I had visited twice while an employee of the company), sat for an hour and a half as they unloaded, drove the 3 miles back to the truck stop from whence I started, and waited 3 hours for my next assignment. I also had lunch while waiting.
It must be getting close to time for me to head home for some time off, 'cuz they're sending me to Texas. This time I'm heading first to Evansville, IN to pick up a load tomorrow at noon, then I'll haul it to Mt. Vernon, TX to deliver it at noon the next day. So tomorrow's gonna be a long day of driving. It's 600+ miles from Evansville to Mt. Vernon, and I'll have 24 hours to make the drive and fit in a 10-hour break. That really ought to be plenty of time.
I stopped here (a Pilot truck stop in southern KY) because there isn't much in the way of truck stops between here and Evansville. It's only about 80-90 miles from here, so I'll make that part of the drive in the morning. Then I'll haul a** to get as far across Arkansas as I can tomorrow. When I stop I'll pull out the ol' laptop and tell y'all about it.
Thanks for checking up on me once again. Send me your comments, and keep on truckin'.

Maybe they keep sending you to Texas so you'll really really look forward to going home. See you soon but not soon enough.
