Hot Hot Hot...

Sorry, no pics this time, 'cause I haven't got time...
 
I finally got out of the really vicious heat. I'm up
in Wisconsin tonight and it's under 70 F 20 C (whew, what a relief)
I was in Chicago today and it was over 100 F 39C. I thought
everything was going very well until I was loaded and the
USDA inspector noticed that they had put the wrong
product on my truck :(

So back into the loading dock and wait for another 2 hrs for
them to replace with the correct product - why would it
matter - it was only some kind of pork going to McDonalds
in Calgary, and I don't eat there, and neither do you.

Anyway, I had some issues with the reefer. The sensor
indicator light kept coming on showing problems with the
alternator, and the voltage was low. My first Thermo King
center was up in Madison, WI., 150 miles away. It managed
to keep running until I got there, and took the tech about
15 minutes to fix it - bad connection on a wiring harness.

Go figure, very new equipment - slight problem can shut it down.
