6:15.  Up and at ’em.   The plan was to get up at 7 but guess My internal alarm had a different idea.   So we are getting on the road a bit earlier than we thought but judging the traffic already outside Chicago getting up and out earlier was a good idea. Crazy!      We only have about an hour drive so hopefully will be out of this soon.  

Made it to our drop in plenty of time.  Got set up and now waiting on them to get to us to unload.  We’ve been waiting an hour already.  Hope it’s not too much longer.  The place is completely staffed with Mexicans.  All the signs in the office are in Spanish and when a message went out over the intercom it was on Spanish.   Oy! 

2 1/2 hours unload time.   Now back on the road to the Wrigley plant in Romeoville, Illinois to take to Jessup, Pennsylvania.  

A couple of new baby pictures. 

We have stopped for the night in Angola, Indiana.   We have about 500 miles to go tomorrow.   We have 34,000 pounds of Wrigley gum.   The smell at th warehouse is almost over powering.  Very minty place but again, Better than meat places!   

It’s 61 tonight.  Not to bad for October.   We know winters coming though.   The truck stops are putting all the washer fluid down to -20 degrees and heavy jackets, scarves, gloves, etc. out now.   Won’t be long now, especially in this part of the country.    Still haven’t seen much fall color.    Trees are either still green or just turning brown.   Hope to see some color before winter.   

Well, goodnight y’all.
