I finally made it up to WI with this heavy load. I intentionally dragged my feet a bit so that I would run through IL today as their weigh stations are usually closed on Sunday. I have permits and all that, it's just a royal pain to have to stop at each weigh station and show it to them.
I'm now parked at the truckstop just a few miles from the factory that will rebuild the military truck and will deliver it there tomorrow morning. For now I can just kick back and relax for a while.
I did manage to do a little geocaching on the way up, one cache being a pretty interesting hike through the woods with some fairly steep climbs in a couple of spots. The new hiking pole came in quite handy. I was glad I wore long pants on that one as there were a lot of stinging nettles along the way.
I think I'll let dispatch know I'm looking for a load back to FL after this one. It's getting about time to go home for a bit. I'm ready to spend a little R&R time at home.
Not much else going on. I'm gonna make myself a sandwich and pop in a DVD.
