Home bound!
It's been an exciting couple of weeks. From breaking down in Missouri and having to call the cops to direct traffic to getting stuck in 5 hours of traffic in chicago and now the complete opposite. Cruising with the windows down through the beautiful mountain of Montana. I'm so excited to go home, not that I dislike being out here but it's just nice to go home and see the people you love and to most importantly, RELAX! Sit around, meet up with some friends and hopefully sit in front of the tv and just do nothing... I can't wait!
My truck after a bath and a polish. She sure does look good when she's clean...
Traveling through Indiana heading west.
Somewhere in Missouri (anyone know?)
After fueling up in Mt. Vernon, MO I leave to head back onto I-44. Right before turning left onto the interstate I stop and then... bam. There goes my clutch. It took a sh|t right then and there. Traffic was backing up real quick so I called 911 and asked for some help....
And Mrs lady officer came to the rescue 10 minutes later followed by another and another. It was a mess....
The view from the wheel.
Picked up a load in Green Bay, WI real close to the Packers stadium... My trainer begged me to get him a cheese head since he's in love with the packers... Now, I don't care for sports, but man, the inside of that stadium was wild!
Toll road suck, but the rest stops or "Oasis's" as they like to call it are way cool. Here's a Mc Donalds spanning across the highway. When you're upstairs you can sit and watch the traffic go under... way cool!
The St. Louis Arch.
Another exciting trip to Chicago. Here I am just outside chicago around 3pm...
And here I am around 7pm a whole 10 miles down the road....................
Yup, it's summer. The bugs are out!
So we've had a giant bulls in texas, dino's in New mexico and now this cow in North dakota....
Weclome to montana "Big Sky Country" and some gusty winds. This is what montana looked like for about 300 miles today. My truck was leaning to left due to some nice strong winds coming from the north... what fun!
The wind's stopped when I entered the mountains... I loved driving along I-90 today...
Heading out of the mountains and down into the grasslands...
That's all for now folks,
Chris
