It's time to go home...

Yeah, I'm missing home right now and I couldn't be in a worse place. I'm in Mount Pocono, PA just about as far east as you can get from Sacramento... I think it's the fact that it's 49 degrees outside and I actually had to turn my bunk heater on for a little bit. It's August, what's up with this rainy and cold weather?

Anyways, I ended up taking a reset here at a motel in Mt. Pocono. The hotel was pretty run down but it turned out to be real nice staying there. I ended up meeting some people who are renting a room out for awhile at the motel and spent saturday night hanging out with them on the patio while consuming some adult beverages...haha. It was nice to get out of the truck and actually talk to some people. The hotel was built in the early 50's and the current owners are trying to fix it up but it's in a great location. Theres about 20 rooms and over 50 acres of nice green grass looking over above the trees. Their porch overlooked New Jersey in the distance. It was a nice night and it was warm, at about 75 degrees. When I woke up the next morning it was nasty and rainy but it was interesting sitting outside watching the clouds roll in and the lightning and thunder in the distance....


The Costco DC in Morris, IL gives you this transponder that goes off when they are done unloading you. It's exactly like what they give you when you go to a restruant back at home... Pretty cool.



A Tunnel on I-77 (I think)



This is exactly where I'm parked right now except now it's pouring down rain...




The Ameristar casino in Kansas City, MO... It's right around the corner from the SNI yard. It's HUGE inside and reminds me of Ceasars Palace in Las Vegas.




Backed up inside a building and getting loaded near Chicago, IL. I almost took my mirror off on the building... doh

Lookin' good in Kansas



Ever seen the Show on CMT called "Trick My truck"? This is where it used to be filmed at. The Home of the Chrome Shop Mafia but too bad they were closed... I was sad.




The "Mob Sled" displayed as their sign right across from the Joplin Petro in Joplin, MO exit 4 off of I-44
