Sitting in Nashville. Would like to get out of here. Was at the TA downtown. I decided to leave after talking to the night manager.

This is what the night manager said.
The young female night manager says I'll have no problem parked in front. They have 2 security guards on weekends! Stay away from the motel next door, it's where all the homeless and druggies live. We are downtown and just under the bridge in front of my van is the downtown bars and party scene about 1/2 - 1 mile away. She says a lot of drivers either walk or take a cab down there and come back drunk. But she says its a safe place to park in front, but not so good in the back by the big trucks after they've been drinking downtown. Makes me wonder!

Bill, back in my beginning days of expediting I tried to layover there, but left shortly after. I wouldn't sleep there if I got paid to do it. If you insist to stay at a truck stop, then go to the TA in Antioch, I24 exit 62 I believe. But I usually stay at Walmart, last week I was at one about 8 miles north of that downtown TA.

Yeah. Nashburg sucked today. Apparently Jordan got the only load out of there.
We did bid on one to CO for you. But they wouldn't do enough. Assbags!!

Leaving is a few minutes to pick up a couple of friends from Ducks Unlimited. The three of us are going to relocate out on to Lake Erie for a layout hunt.
