The weekend run

I am ordered to head southwest several hundred miles to pick up a pre-loaded trailer at a Bridgestone tire plant, bound for Missouri. This after several hours of waiting at a nearby truck stop.

I had a run-in with the local lot lizard while I was waiting at the truck stop. I made the mistake of rolling down my driver's-side window more than a crack and she took the opportunity to jump up and place her hands along the top edge. Even after growling "It gets off the truck or it gets the hose!" in an ominous voice she persisted. Next time I will get my camera and start taking photos to use by the police to identify one of these creepy women.

The route:
