Good night from...

I came out after Easter home time last Friday. Got 2100 miles up to Oregon, back to Lathrop, then the trip to Phoenix.

Could have done better, but the Friday load turned into and all day affair, reworked twice. Burned up my 14, then had to spend my Saturday clock to get the load to Oregon, instead of being positioned to drop first thing Saturday.

Unloaded this morning at the receiver in Mira Loma and got a t call from the yard going to NM. In Winslow for the night, dorp tomorrow. See what happens from there.

 

Toledo is a nice little town. I didn't make it in that bar, but stopped in at the pig feather bbq and the reptile shop. Will remember your advice for next time.
Am at the Troutdale terminal tonight.

 

alamagordo again then santa rose, nm, and now emporia, ks. i sat for a day and a half in alamagordo then got a load from el paso to pontiac, mi. good enough for me.

i would like to know why i never and i mean never get to go to the pnw. i would eat a puppy just to go up there (almost).

my new office:

 

Lancaster for a 34 then hopefully it's off to the east coast....Now on E-logs...

 

Check your facebook...sent that link to you there.

 

Got mine done today in Lewiston. Only took a couple hours, was quite amazed at their efficiency. Wish all Swift shops were that fast.

 

I must have just missed you both times. Delivered to a Lowe's in Billings, then deadheaded to Worland WY for a p/u of empty cans to Union Gap WA. Stayed overnight at the shipper in Worland on Wednesday night.

 

Hunner, you now have the right to refuse a load for any, or no reason at all. I don't suggest doing this on a regular basis, but that option is given to L/Os. I recently refused a load going to Fry's in Tolleson, AZ on the grounds that it takes all day for them to unload. I know this about that receiver from personal experience...and a recent post from another driver for an entirely different company confirmed that nothing has changed in the past year. So I refused to go to that customer. My time is worth more than that.

Yep. E-logs. New QCs. Knew it wouldn't be long. L/Os and O/Os are supposed to be getting them starting August. I need to locate the docket number from when Prime sued and won the right to move a truck 2 miles before the log kicked you over to driving. Some customers have such a large facility that you can easily burn .7 mile just going around the building.

Oh, yeah. Spent the night in Caldwell, ID. Be heading to Sumner later. Maybe.

 

will do thanks..
