Louisville, United States, Kentucky


 
Very short driving day today: only about an hour. We hung out at the TA in Seymour, IN until about 5pm when we finally got word about our next load going to... Manassas, VA!

So what did we do all day before heading to Louisville, KY? Why we spent $39.75 in quarters on pull tab lottery tickets of course (which I've only seen in Indiana). How much did we win? $41.25. Success! What did we do with our earnings? Why we bought more lottery tickets like good little gamblers of course. The second time we only won back $31.50. We probably would have kept buying more tickets, but we had a schedule to keep. :P

Tonight we drop off this load at 11:59pm and pick up the next load a few miles from here at 6am. Then we're headed East!

Only a few interesting sights today:
- Our pile of lottery ticket duds. The picture shows less than half of them. The tickets ranged in cost from 25 cents to a dollar each, so you can imagine how many $40 can buy. Interesting side note: About 95% of all of our winnings were from pull tab tickets I opened. Taz was like "WTH??".
- We crossed the Ohio River today. That's three giant rivers in 2 days!
- A fantastic sunset, Kentucky-style.

Trucking lesson of the day: Even when you're sleeping, you're working.
