Today I got to see something I never expected to see while driving down the road. For no apparent reason a JB Hunt truck decided to do a u-turn on the highway. He went from being along the side of the road to making a left into the median. So I got to see a truck broadside to me as I am coming down the highway at highway speed. The median at that point was a lot wider than the length of a truck, but you just don't do that. It is dangerous enough when a car does it, but when a slow moving truck tries, it is even worse. It isn't like the next exit was far away, it was only three miles down the road.
Anyway, delivered my load this morning at Papa Johns, and by some miracle (my driver manager), I had another load right away. It didn't take me far, but it kept me moving and local. So I went from Freedom, Pennsylvania, to Austintown, Ohio, and then 232 miles back into Pennsylvania for a pick-up tomorrow morning a few miles away from here. Then I will head back to Austintown to deliver the load, and after that I have no idea. I might just do this loop again, which wouldn't be to bad.
Everywhere I look right now it is getting foggier and foggier. It started to get grayer and a bit foggy the further East I drove from the highest point on I-80, East of the Mississippi (they have a sign and everything). So tonight will be fog and drizzle, which means finding my way tomorrow morning will be a really fun time.
