One third of a million miles now
Since Thanksgiving I have been out quite a bit.My 1st trip out was to Newark Delaware then Coatsville PA to Indianapolis IN then Indy to Muskegon MI then Grand Rapids MI to Kansas city MO then near St Louis to back home for a couple of days. I left out again last Monday with a load to Kenosha Wisc. I blew a trans cooler line North of Chicago, on the Toll road so I had the Tow truck take me to my drop then to the repair shop, well it turns out this little piece of wire holds allison transcooler lines in my truck so it cost me a $400 tow and a $380 repair for a stupid little wire that fell off. Great design allison!(Sarcasm). Oh yeah about a year ago it happened too, they replaced the connector then it still leaked so I replaced both lines.
I got another load out of Chicago that took me way out to the middle of Montana. I shouldn't have gone though. It is a very pretty place but no return freight. I've dead headed all the way back here to Willmar, Minnesota about 100 miles west Of Minneapolis. I need a load out tomorrow because they have blizzard warnings for tomorrow night.
Livingston Montana
The next few are pics I took between Livingston and Billings Montana. By the way Montana is the 44th state I have been to. Just got to go to Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Wyoming and I will have been to all of the 48.

A Royal Flush on Full Tilt Poker
Playing Holdem on Full Tilt last night I got this hand. I flopped a nut flush. The Queen on the turn gave me a Royal Flush. I actually got burned so many times with people sucking out on the last card. It really cost me what should have been a great night. It turned out pretty good still, I cashed out $200 again. I was looking at my Full Tilt transaction history, since May I have cashed out $200 7 times and bought in for $50 7 times. Thats $1050 I'm up since May. I'm up about $4,ooo total since I started playing on there about 2 years ago. Not bragging but to me it is really cool that I have a "hobby" that kills time when I am stuck waiting somewhere, that has actually been turning a little profit.
I got a run today from Troutman North Carolina to here in Cleveland Ohio. Hopefully I get one tomorrow the rest of the way home.
