Laidover in Ontario, CA for the 4th of July we rented a car and headed to Newport Beach on a whale watching excursion! And, while we weren't fortunate enough to sight any whales, we did run across a large pod of common dolphins and some California sea lions basking in the sun piled on a bouy...

This past weekend we got laidover in FL. So, we headed on down to St. Augustine, rented a car and took in a very special B&B. Later we would learn that we would have been better off just parking at the J and calling a cab. Once we got downtown we were able to take one of the many tours on the...

Well, finally we got laidover with a decent load picking up on Monday. We'd been told that we could get into State Parks and that the people that told us had never been turned away. I finally convinced HoneyPie to take me fishing at a State Park. So, we researched it on the web and found...

My honey and I love Vegas! Love it! We had a run to the Salt Lake area and delivered and what were our layover options? Los Angeles! So, of course, we went to Vegas Babee! We got a decent load offer for pickup Monday, which meant we had all day Fri, Sat, and Sun to play. We decided...

We originally set out to do a little fishing, and stumbled across old Ft. Hunter just off of the highway. You can park right on the side of the road and go tour the old restored town and mansion museum. We had a good time, but never did find a place to go fishing. :)

So, you say you're laid over near Akron on a weekend. Well, try this . . . Go to Hale Farm in Bath, OH. The entrance fee is a bit pricey at $14.50/ea. but you can easily get there with a straight truck and there is plenty of parking. All the roads leading in are OK for trucks. We...

As luck would have it, we were passing through Las Vegas just in time for the tail end of the Great Western Truck Show at the Hilton Convention Center. So, we stopped (of course). It was good getting out of the truck and getting a little exercise, but the show itself was not really set up for...

Whata Buncha Fun! :p This weekend they spun the wheel and after a very busy week, we landed in Greensboro, NC. So, as in the past, we did a little research on the web and ended up visiting Old Salem, NC. Both my husband and I like American history, so this was right up our alley. Old...

We had a weekend layover in Springfield, MO. After getting all the laundry, cleaning and shopping done we took off for Branson. Its always a little risky taking a truck to go sightseeing, you just never know. But, Branson was an easy in, easy out truck friendly town. We have a 6-Wheeler...

Ok, here we are. It's Saturday morning. We didn't get a last minute Friday run, again. Looks like we're stuck at the Petro in Baton Rouge for the weekend. Chances are that we won't catch a run until Monday. Food is decent, at least, but getting old. The Petro store carries all the...
