Today's drive to Chicago, IL was pleasant--no major traffic snarls along the way.

After unloading, I retraced my route back to Milwaukee, WI.

Back at the warehouse, I enjoyed the snacks that my company put out for the drivers (yesterday and today) for driver appreciation week.  I'm not sure the general public knew much about Trucker Appreciation week, but we truckers did.  I got a kick out of listening to the CB-radio this week.  When a driver politely...ahem...told another driver about his driving skills, other truckers were quick to jump in and remind the encouraging driver...ahem...that it was Trucker Appreciation Week and we should all be nice to one another.  That's when the conversation really started to get...er...interesting.  Grin.

For the week, my mileage wasn't that great.  After next week, I'll be having another pow-wow with my boss about the mileage situation.

miles driven = 224

miles driven for the week = 2,098
