Nice. I'm starting to get impatient here. I really want to throw all my crap in the car and go now... Its going to be a long 3 weeks.

Correct. Priveleged to P/U a "Wreaths across America" reef. Good feeling when you hear a honk & get thumbs up.
Screwy long first night due to circumstance. Second night drove till late but much better. Slept outside Memphis & roll soon. Can't wait to see snow disappear & get to warmer climate!
Still got to get downshift down better. Will have good oportunity when closer to Houston w/many towns to run through.
Lovin' it so far. Only regret..... should have done this 30yrs ago!
Peace -
Dropped Houston load. Ran empty to Austin & traded for loaded trailer headed for Wisconsin. Just ran through Dallas.
Unload in Houston about 5hrs, but chance to catch some z's. Getting to see some of trials you run into right from 1st few days. It's all good, though. Really diggin' this.
Now, if I can just get that #### downshifting down....... -
Plan change. Slept at Chocktah Nation, OK and drove to SpringMo and dropped loaded trailer. Downshifting starting to click. Small towns along way make you acclimate. Repetion does the trick.
Get some pad time tomorrow for more backing practice. Then back out Sun. -
Thought I saw you at the terminal tonight.

Got in around 9pm. Dropped trailer & back to Inn.

I'm generally pretty patient.... But the days are going by pretty slow, it seems. I'm just anxious to get started, nothing wrong with that.irishramblernv Thanks this. -
Back at SpringMo for Christmas eve from short St. Louie run. Hopefully have good load out for Christmas day.
Downshift much better now, think I have it down.
Good time spent on pad backing got to get put into actual practice several times. Not as bad as I feared, but will definately take a lot of getting used to.
Getting more confident in ability to pass test now. Hopefully fully confident after next week.
So far, still thumbs up!
