A funny thing happened....

We delivered our load early this morning and headed to a truck stop for breakfast and a shower. While eating breakfast we saw a guy that could be kin to our friend Pat. Talks like him, walks like him....

After breakfast we returned to the truck for shower stuff and watched one truck take the front corner off another while driving through the lot. Couldn't believe it. The poor guy who got hit was asleep in his truck! What a lousy way to wake up on Monday morning!!

After our showers we returned to see a different truck stuck. Not in the mud...he had tried to drive over the grassy area into the parking spot instead of pulling into the lot and backing into the space. His tractor got hung up in the grass. HILARIOUS!!! So now, not only was his tractor hung up, but his trailer was blocking a street into a residential area.

We watched the NY State Patrol officers laugh at both drivers. We figured they handed out some pretty pricey pieces of paper today.

Since things happen in threes, we decided to exit that property!!! We moved west to Syracuse to await pick up for our next load. We'll load at 22:45 tonight and head to Ontario. We're hoping the snow stays east of us.

Stay tuned.............

It sounds like you did the right thing getting out of there. I wrote a lot more a minute ago and then realized that I had to create an account to post to your blog. Anyway, when I came back after registering, my blog was gone. This technology thing is killing me ;)
