Depressed

I wrote a long entry for today, but decided at the last minute not to post it. It wasn't interesting, you wouldn't have liked it.   I'm in Faucett (yes, with a "U" not a "W"), MO, this morning. I'm supposed to be on the road, but I haven't left, yet. I have drive across Nebraska today.   I've been very, very depressed for quite awhile. I'm taking my meds, and they seem to be doing a fanastic job of keeping my mind off of doing something stupid, but I'm still very, very depressed.   Which i

North Dakota

I drove across North Dakota yesterday. Started in Miles City, Montana, and ended up in Fergus Falls, Minnesota. I

Insanity Reigns!

A wagon train is in a circle with bullets and arrows flying through the air. Horses are stumbling at full gallop, throwing their stuntmen riders into the dirt. A woman, in a gingham dress of indefinite color, since this is a B&W movie, is reloading rifles behind her man.

Virginia

I'm in Virgina, at a truck stop across the road from Kings Dominion? Supposed to be a theme park of some sort. All I know is that yesterday's drive down from Allentown, PA, took six and a half hours when it shouldn't have taken much more than four. Too many people for not enough road.   Well, it's my own fault, really. I could've driven down the night before, but I'd had enough of night driving and wasn't in the mood for any more. Besides, I ran into something in Allentown.   The reefer on t

Pennsylvania

What is it about Pennsylvania that makes it so desirable to me?   The closest I can come to knowing someone from Pennsylvania is my maternal great-grandmother who was born and raised in Venango County around the Franklin area. Supposedly, there are still a few Brandons in that area who would be distantly related.   Yet, I have this strange need to be somewhere in the state. It seems to be in my bones. I

Flatline

I delivered the salad makings this morning at the Wal-Mart D/C in Tomah, Wisconsin, and then scurried down to a wonderful truck stop in Mauston where I nodded off for a few hours hoping to catch up on the sleep I didn

7227

I spent the night on Donner Summit over by the sign saying 7,227 feet. It was a hard slog up the hill from Sacramento and I couldn

Wyoming has sheep

I drove across Wyoming today; well, actually I drove the first 158 miles early, like just after midnight until 4 AM when I ran out of hours and needed to stop to reset my logbook. First of all, I

Iowa is Good

Yesterday afternoon I crossed the Mississippi River at Burlington, Iowa, headed for Mount Pleasant to pick up a load of processed meat. Afterwards I headed north to I-80 and west, stopping for the night in Altoona. This morning I got up early and headed for Wiggins, Colorado, where I

ND is OK

First of all let me make this perfectly clear, I like North Dakota. I know some people think it as an American version of Siberia, but from what I

Prescott, AR

Don't you hate it when you're traveling and you get to some place that barely has cell service. Kind of between towers. That's Prescott, Arkansas. When I arrived yesterday I couldn't get a signal, so internet access was haphazard at best. So, I slept. Good thing, too, because I'm heading into the Metroplex this morning. Fuel in Irvine, delivery in Fort Worth, and a hell of a lot of four wheelers buzzing about paying attention to no one but themselves and the person sending them a text message, w

Ohio

I drove through Ohio yesterday. Mostly across, but a good portion was actually through the state as I drove down State Highways 66 and 48 from Minster to I-70 where I headed west again.   Small town America. That

Waiting

Do you enjoy waiting?   I don't.   I'm at a truck stop in Idaho Falls waiting until it's time to go pick up my next load. I've been waiting here since noon yesterday.   When I was on my way here the day before yesterday, I received a load that was supposed to pick up two hours before my current load was to be delivered. Not only was it two hours earlier, it was over an hour away. I figured, with a lot of luck and favorable weather, I'd be six or seven hours late for the pickup. I let the w

What do you wear?

What do you do for endless hours with nothing to do except keep the big truck between the lines and away from four-wheelers made of plastic and sheet metal?   Listen to music? Yeah, sometimes and sometimes the road is so washboarded that the CD player doesn
