The Next Leg of the Adventure!

Tomo dropped his trailer off in Tooele, UT this morning and bobtailed(no trailer) to CO.  From Salt Lake City, UT to Fort Collins, CO is about 8 hours but it took me 10 1/2 hours due to the icy roads and a snow storm on I 80. When Bobtailing, he doesn't have any weight on the back to balance, so the tractor just wants to go everywhere. Bobtailing in the icy & snowy weather is one of the last things he wants to do. It did scared the guts out of him couple times. Few truck were in the ditch in WY and couple cars too.

Tomo is now at some friend's place again for the night in Fort Collins/Windsor area. They live 5 minutes away from the freeway. His 10 hour off duty will be up at 9 tomorrow morning so he'll take off again. This time heading to Colorado Springs.  Then after that ... who knows.
