Left Springfield at 5am. Easy Sunday. Sleeping in Brazil Indiana

We gently eased out of my parents’ Springfield neighborhood at 5 o’clock this morning. Mom is apprehensive about having our truck and around, as it might be too noisy for everyone’s comfort. 

  It took a little more than two hours to get down to Mountain Home, Arkansas to pick up our load. I had forgotten how steep and twisty some of the roads can be getting down there. Our shipper was pleasant and trading trailers at their facility went smoothly.

  Being a Sunday night, we figured that the truck stops would be very full. I asked Stephanie to reserve a parking space. When we got to Brazil Indiana, there are still quite a few spaces available. I guess we didn’t need to spend that $12, after all.

  For dinner, Stephanie made corned beef and cabbage. It tasted good and was satisfying. The puppies enjoyed the leftover broth.
