Ugly Windmills

Half of them were still and the other half were merrily going along. I missed a better pic just a few minutes later that showed absolute clusters of these babies. If I lived close to one of these fields, I think I'd find a way to move out.

The wind was blowing pretty strongly but for the life of me, I just can't see how these things are going to be our future.

Anyway, I wonder about the birds flying around, the cattle underneath, the varmints...you get the pic, eh??

Seems like a cluster to me.

Just So's You Know...

Hubby made it back to our truck with a bag of breakfast goodies. This cutie pie got his share of said goodies! BTW, two of his buddies showed up (hey, party news travels fast!) And the got their portion too.

Then they moved on to the next sucker truck driver and probably chowed down there.

The Cutest Junk Yard Dog, Huh?

I'm here at and Indian casino just doing my log when this cutie pie came waltzing up and gave "the look".

I hunted around my cab but don't have anything to throw him! Hubby will be back in a minute with some goodies and I'll be sure to give him (the dog, not my hubby) a donut or two.

What The Hell Is This??

This is in Okemah, OK. I looked at it from several angles and while I see the bulls head, why on earth did someone stick a bunch of wine barrels on the front??

I admit, I'm not real up on art but for this, I think someone had too much time on their hands. Maybe they drank the wine out of the barrels?? That might 'splain it! Whaddya think??

Yes, These Are Caddies Set Nose First In The Ground

This is just west of Amarillo, Tejas. I can't remember the whole story but it had something to do with some too-rich guy and his Caddie collection.

Finally, I remembered to get a pic of this odd phenom. Heh....

Paid Vacations!!

It's hard to see but below the name of their tucking company, he has the words "Paid Vacations" below it.

Yup, how true and funny! 'Cept you work your buns off and in hot and cold weather and put up with grouchy customers and 4-wheelers that should never be on the road and mixed up or wrong directions and brokers who don't know their @$$ from a hole in the ground and....what else did miss??

Yep, it sure sounds like a swell vacays to me!! Heh...

A Mechanic After My Own Heart

He loffs his horses!

Instead of pics of semi-nude (or nude) girls, he has pics of his horses on his tool box.

I'm tellin' ya, this guy is one swell guy!

See The Little Sucker Stuck To My Windshield??

Well, the little mutha just happened to splat right where I look through my windshield. After he splatted (it had to be a 'him', only a male is that stoopid), he flipped and flopped from side to side for the longest time. I tried to ignore and look around him, thinking he'd be blown off just any time now.

Nooooo!!! The idjit hung on for a good 10 miles or so, so full of whatever, he was! I just had to get a pic. Truly monumental!

Stripper Pole Dancer Crossed With Weigh Station Lady

I'm telling you, I have never seen so much eye makeup on a DOT officer than yesterday!! I couldn't see her eyes,only two big pools of blue and a grayish color. It was hard not to stare! But we all know you can't tick off an officer so } tried to focus on the matters at hand.

Sheesh, I wondered what the guys thought that were getting pulled in too. I didn't have my CB on but I should have, would've loffed to know what they were saying!

TA Offices Are Actually Closed On Sundays!

No customer service whatsoever! Say what?? Okay, I'll call tomorrow because I would like to get my money back that I paid for internet access. But no one is in the office....can you believe???

TA, Your Internet Is Pretty Bad

I paid for 24 hours and as of one hour now, still can't get to the page I want. It is connected, I have double and triple checked? My firewalls will allow.

Just the friggin' 'net won't work. I quit using truckstop 'nets a while back but thought I'd give it another shot today.

Looks like I was wrong and wasted my money. Soooo, I won't use TA's 'net anymore. I had problems a while back with Love's but something happened and it started "working". Now if only TA will fix this. Gah!!

Stuck In Traffic

Ahead is a one lane bridge and of course a truck broke down in the middle of said one lane bridge...*sigh*...

So, here we sit... two troopers did show up but unless a tow truck gets here, we're sitting for a while.

Crap.

Chicago! Chicago!

Here's a pic of the Sears Tower, albeit from a distance. I have better pictures on my camera and will figure out how to post them.

Obviously, the pic is a bit shady but I didn't think it would be a good idea to wait till in really heavy traffic to take it. So, this is what I have.

Anywho, it's still a neat place and makes a nice photo.

He Went Off The Road

He kept it upright at least. Quite a bit back down the highway, you could see where he went off and over some trees and still made it.

Thank goodness he's okay. I'm sure he was scared outta his wits!

The Pilot At Avoca, IA Is Rated...

Five stars!!

I'm telling you, it was the cleanest shower and plenty of towels and not too hot. Plus, the shower was actually big enough to move around in. That's a 5 star-er for me!

If'n you gets a chance, toddle on by and check it out!

Petro And TA, Double Points During March!

Yay!!

I likes double points. That means I can get things faster!

Yay!!

When Pilot/Flying J had triple points, it really helped when we bought our flatscreen TV. So, I'm all for the points!

Yay!!

The Strangest Waitress At Denny's

We stopped in at a Flying J, grabbed a shower and since it's Sunday, thought we'd have a nice dinner.

Well, the food was good, I loff Denny's, the waitress obviously needed to go home and rest or something.

Both of our orders were wrong and when we pointed it out, she appologized and said she was tired. Hubby said he wondered why he got hash browns with a dinner order! Our salads were correct but I had to ask for a straw with my tea.

Bless her heart, she was so spacey!! Well, we got fed and the food was good, even if it wasn't 'quite' what we ordered!

Well, In The Shop Again...

Had a PM done yesterday but this morning hubby noticed some liquid under the truck. Turns out it was anti-freeze. He popped the hood, as much as you can "pop" a big rig's hood, and found a hole in the hose.

So, I toddled my rig around to the shop and the guy is working on it as I post.

I'm going to have a whole new truck before too long!!

4-Wheelers Were Extra Stupid Today

Suffice it to say, there are more than a couple of dri8vers of autos who should stay the foxtrot off the road and get some manners from their mommies, or someone who gives a damn.

Some 4Rwheeler drivers are just asking to see the pearly gates early, know what I mean?? They should be thankful I and other big rig drivers are professionals and save their goddamn asses.
