Edwardsville, IL

While I originally planned on driving one more day and going on to my 34-hour break tonight, my truck developed a really bad air leak yesterday, one that was losing air at a rate nearly double the DOT allowed threshold. As such, I had to go in to the operating center here and get it repaired, since the DOT would have shut me down if I were unlucky enough to get an inspection. I'm still waiting on them to finish the repair - my truck was supposed to be ready half an hour ago - since I want to leave fairly soon to get plenty of miles knocked out tonight. I want to be as far down the road as possible before I have to stop, such that I have as much time left as possible after I make my delivery Tuesday morning.
