Loved all the US states but hated New Orleans, too much voodoo and the rudest zombies. Wolf ran across the road in front of me on my way to Kitimat, British Columbia just as I was tuning in Anchorage on the am radio and I've been to Thunder Bay Ontario at the east end of my Canandian travels. Used to be able to convert kilograms, kilometers and centigrade to regular numbers on the fly and carried a map of Calgary daily last job I had. Biggest surprises, Texas and Chicago. Actually, Chicago seems more western to me than Texas!

So me and Glenn got this load to take down to Albuquercie (you try and spell it!). Swap loaded tank trailers with another company driver and proceed. We knew we'd either end up going to Texas or Los Angeles. Problem was: a hurricane was bearing down on TX. and they were fixing to read the O.J. verdict in LA. remember Reginald Denny? Oh boy. We took a meal break/driver change at a Sapp Bros. just out of SLC and heard that the Juice was acquited. Now only had that hurricane... No whining boys, sez Joe our dispatcher. Joe was so mean that he didn't need hurricane insurance, the hurricane needed Joe insurance.
