Four, count 'em, FOUR days off

You may recall my last time through the house was almost exactly 34 hours, just long enough to reset my logbook. Not, unfortunately, much of a break from the routine.

This time I'm off until Tuesday morning with the whole big enchilada of a weekend staring me in the face. Aside from a few matters at the house I plan on just relaxing, eating good food, playing some games and maybe watching a movie or two.

As far as my trips went, I was up yesterday at 0100 to finish out the run to Omaha and once I got that out of the way I grabbed a shower and headed to the company yard. A preplan came through with a trip leaving any time yesterday or today and delivering today by 1700 in Carthage, Missouri then off for home. I spent the night in Omaha then did it all in one long stretch of driving this morning and afternoon.

This is my 895th post between this blog and my previous one (linked in the sidebar). I may just hit 1,000 by year's end.
