Night Driving is Stress Free for me...

Well, got to Kenosha at 6am and waiting for the sun to come up, giving my car a break and chilling. If there was cell service up here, I’d have it made.

Let’s see, pulled out at 9:45pm and discovered it’s up hill all the way to the top of Wolf creek. Took 3 hours to reach the gas stop and got 47.2 mpg on the stretch. (Big Smiley Face)!!!

At the base of wolf creek on the east side, I found myself swerving around stuff in the road. Not talking little stuff, talking stuff big enough to trash anything that hit it. The only way to get around this stuff would to drive on the shoulder or down the middle of the road. So, I drove down the middle then turned around to clean it up. What I found is that someone will find they’re missing a side entrance door on a horse trailer, about 10 brushes, a bit, a saddle blanket and other misc. I heard a big truck coming, so I cleared the eastbound side first and finished up westbound side. By the time he got to where I was at, all he knew was I was getting ready to turn around. There was some kind of shelf attached to the door that lifted one side up about 8 inches, which would have caused all the real damage. I wanted to get it cleared so fast it never occurred to get a picture first. Oh well! I saved someone(s) a couple grand in repairs this morning. It would have been pretty ugly! It looked like they had the door locked open and they blew a tire and the tread tore the door right off. It had to have been a dually, because they would noticed everything when they pulled off to change the tire.

Hanging at the edge of city checking the web for a campground that isn't booked this weekend. It's suppose to reach 98 today, so I really want to get settled in in the next hour or so. Tired now, only an hour sleep sense yesterday. Most of this was written earlier then pasted here just now.

It's after noon and I checked into a campground I've stayed at before high in the hills to escape the heat today. I even have an ok signal from my table here. Tent is up and a hard nap taken. Thinking back on my drive last night it was a good one. Even got to take care of some driver who never would have seen the mess in the road if somebody was coming at them.
