Oct 7, 2003

From Wilmington OH, I drove through downtown Cincinnati and on to the TA in Florence KY.  I arrived at 0215.  It was very crowded.  I was glad I was bobtail, as there was a spot right up front!

Since our load was not ready until 0600, I let Lori sleep without the truck moving while I went across the parking lot to the Waffle House, where I pigged out on one of their famous waffles, some crispy bacon (mmmm... bacon), and scrambled eggs. I bought a BLT to go for Lori when she woke up, which she did around 0430.  At 0515, I drove us over to the shipper in Hebron, and turned the reigns over to Lori at 0545.

When I woke up, we were in western Tennesee.  Lori drove us in to the West Memphis AR OC at 1745 where I took over.  While there, we ate dinner.  The "lunch lady" at the cafeteria there makes good bacon & BLTs.

I drove out of West Memphis at 1845 and stopped for a break at the Love's in Little Rock.  If you think Pilots have small truck parking lots, visit a Love's!  AT 2115, I finally got out of there, and drove on to our OC in Dallas TX, arriving there at 0230 on the 8th.
