Tractor Wash Attempt #1
This morning's delivery went without a hitch.

It was another good, sunny driving day across Minnesota and Wisconsin. I hit rush hour going through Minneapolis but it really wasn't too bad. Once in Wisconsin, I thought about getting my tractor washed at a truck washing facility (the company pays for one tractor wash per month). However, I was told that it wasn't quite warm enough. It needs to be above 40-degrees in order for the company to approve a truck wash. Next week looks like a winner--I'll have to wait and see if my schedule and route allows for it.

Since I was almost out of hours for the day, I opted to get up early tomorrow to make tomorrow morning's appointment time of 6:00 AM (the drive-time is 5-hours from the warehouse). Therefore, another night home with the family and a home cooked meal! If I get at least 5-hours of sleep--bonus!

miles driven = 451
