A DREAM of a GIFT and a clear road for hauling!!

Healthy Trucker's Friend
The trucker's dream gift!!  Tomo's stop over in Windsor, CO was more than wonderful!!  Besides great fellowship with a loving family, he was presented his idea of a trucker's dream gift .... A slow cooker for the road!!  Now once he gets his rice cooker, he will be enjoying the road more than ever.  A heartfelt thanks to those lovely people in Windsor!! They are stuck with him stopping in as the travels permit!!  










Tomo's trailer ready for loading.
Here is his truck backed up to the dock ready for his load in Lyons, KS. 




















Loaded with Road Salt!!
The trailer is loaded with bags if salt. Not the food kind ... The one that you spray on pavement and what not. 
17 pallets, weighing in at  42,500 lb. 
My total weight is 77,500 lb.  His truck will be huffing and puffing up the hills all the way!!  (Luckily the midwest is relatively flat!)

Right out side of Lyons on Hwy 56.
This is just outside of Lyons, Kansas as I head out for Mishawaka, Indiana. 
He is parked for the night in Eagleville, MO, just a few miles south of the Missouri Iowa border.  

Tomo should roll into Mishawaka IN tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully make it in time for receiving at Lowe's in the late afternoon.




Stopped just south of the Iowa/Missouri border
