Plaza in Ohio

I spent the night last night parked along a fence next to a prison exercise yard. As I sat in my little deprivation chamber eating tuna, I watched prisoners play basket ball outside in a nice play ground and then go inside, I assume to shower and be served a hot meal.

I got a load to pick up in Hazelton PA delivering in Belvidere IL. It's west of the east coast and I didn't waste any time getting out of Newark. It rained a lot on the way to Hazelton but the customer was easy to find and they loaded me quickly with only about 15,000 lbs of plastic bowls. That's just enough weight to make the rig ride smoothly but not slow me down on hills.

As I traveled west on I80 I passed through the Pocono's in Pennsylvania. It was beautiful riding through the clouds and mountains. I stopped for a, 'you know' and a shower and shave. I got a $5 subway and ate half there and the other half I'm eating now. Just as I was getting to Ohio the sun was setting and it was indescribably beautiful.



Now I am at a Plaza on the Ohio TP. I'm over half way to my customer so I don't have to be in any hurry tomorrow. My appointment is at 2100.
