On to Minnesota

It is a little after :00 PM on Thursday and I just got my marching orders for the evening.  Looks like they like me running nights, so I guess i had better get used to sleeping during the day.  So far I haven't had a problem with it.  OK ....tonight's agenda consists of driving 4 and 1/2 hours north to Waterloo, IA.  After I deliver there, I go to Cedar Falls.  Short trip....only eight miles.  Then i get to go to Waverly, IA and my last delivery for the day will be in Mason City, IA.  Usually, I would then go to the Kraft plant and pick up a load there, but tonight I will be leaving Mason City and heading to New Ulm, MN.  I can honestly say that I have never heard of New Ulm, MN before today. 
The only thing I know about it now is that it has a business there called Associated Milk.  I will be picking up a load there and take my ten hour break.  Hopefully I will have enough hours left to find a decent rest stop or truck stop to take my break in.
After my ten hour break is over I will be heading back to Moberly.  Not a bad run....I will get paid on 875 miles and for my stops...so not a bad couple of days work.   I am going to try to get another nap in before I leave... so it is off to bed for me....for a little while ........Tom
