North on US 395

Back to work on Wednesday and picked up in San Bernadino CA and went to Kennewick WA on US 395 and US 95. Along the way, on US 395 at the backside of the Sierra Mountains in California, is the WWII Japanese Relocation Camp of Manzanar. Not much left but the entry guard shacks and the stones from the long gone houses.

One Wheeler Truck Driver

Sitting in Indiana last week in a truck stop, I saw this driver who ammused himself and passed the time away riding a Unicycle around the parking lot.He even juggled some tennis balls while he rode the cycle.

Running in The Midwest for a Week

Running in Ohio,Indiana, Illinois,Wisconsin,and Minnesota this week. Weather has been cool and no Global Warming up here. Came upon a lake on a back Indiana road with a lighthouse on it (Picture), probably just for show as the lake wasn't big enough to need one. Headed home to California and crossed the Mississippi River from Illinois to Iowa at "the Quad Cities" of Illinois and Iowa (Pictures). Entering Omaha Nebraska this afternoon,I passed the stadium(Picture) where the College World Series is taking place and the traffic was horrendous.

Across Montana on I-90 and I-94

Along I-90 and I-94 across Montana. Beautiful country with mountains on the western 2/3rds with the road following numerous river valleys. The roads follow the Yellowstone river for a few hundred miles and passes north of Yellowstone National Park.The Eastern 1/3 of the state is mostly dry, rolling hills with small mountains and alot of ranches and agriculture. Rain on and off and possibly some snow tonight (Oh Joy)

North on I-5 and East on I-90 in Washington

In Washington for the first time in a couple of years. Not one of my favorite places to take a truck to as very few truck stops near Seattle where most of our freight goes.
Found a small truck stop near Sumner WA after I delivered and was charged $20 for a day to park in an old dust field. Reloaded and headed to Ohio along I-90 out of Sumner.
