Settling In for a long Break...

The sad thing is, I don't want a long break, I'd rather keep moving, but the Log book rules shut me down early today, and waiting for Midnight to roll around so I can move again. Actually, I won't be going anywhere until 7am, so I'll get a good night's rest.
Right now I am at Brookhaven, MS, where I've been since about 2pm this afternoon. Unfortunately, I had to get a new tire on my truck today because I picked up a nail somewhere, and had one go flat on me. Normally you can get a tire like this patched for about 25 bucks, but my tire was worn out, and had less than the legal tread depth left, so I went ahead and had the truck stop put on a used tire that still had pretty good tread depth on it. It's actually now the best tire on my truck, even though it was used. It is a Michelin, which are the most expensive tires you can buy for a big truck. This one used cost me 180$ plus mounting and tax, which came up to 224.50.
This is one of those bad things about owning your own equipment, when it breaks, you pay!
