If you can get to Maryland,alot of the interstates are closed in PA right now,I am sitting in the middle of I-80 waiting for penndot to attempt to clear the road,they say it could be Friday afternoon before it is open.

I am in the middle of a 11+ mile backup on westbound I-80 east of I-81
I guess I got out just in time!!!

We got our tractor off this morning. We are over at the TA in Baltimore waiting on permits....our load was called in a legal BUT turned out it is permit load for overweight. What ever we are picking up weighs 50,000lbs so the rate is going to change too. I will post when I know what it is.

The load is going to Detroit. Then we will bounce 35 miles and pick up another load back to Baltimore.

And remember that the TA does not represent the rest of the Old Line State.
