I didn't get my brakes fixed until 6:30 pm est. It took 4 hours, longer than
I expected. I had to stop after a little over an hour of driving because of high
winds and snow. A couple of trucks had gone off the side of the road. A major highway
(402) is closed. For awhile traffic was only moving at 35 mph (60 km/h). I stopped
near London, ON at a Flying J truck stop. I'm not sure what 'Flying J'
stands for.
I'll leave early in the morning and hopefully get into Rochelle about 3:00 pm
cst.
Try going on the following Blogsite:
http://www.19thwheel.blogspot.com Crish created it for me. I'm the 19th wheel.
(the big trucks are called 18 wheelers, in case you were wondering. ) I think there
are 8 lug nuts on every wheel, so I could also be the 145th Lug Nut.
I hope the weather is nice where you are. - James (Jibs - Dad/Papa )
