    So, I got to meet Bear today. Nice to meet you Bear!!

    But now he's gone and I am still waiting here for a load. I knew this was going to be a slow week, but not THIS slow!

    Same here L.B. nice to meet you! I hope you didn't sit around too much longer waiting on that load.

    I'm sitting at the T/A in Bloomsbury, NJ. About 51 miles from the customer, which I deliver at 10 in the morn. Gonna camp out here since I'm familiar with any more truck stops between here and there. Gonna be a cold one again, woke up this morn at the rest area in VA and it was 18 degrees, brrrr.

    I was rolling not long after you left. Went to Alexandria, AL, delivered then took a load of cat food from Decatur,AL to Walmart DC in Douglas, GA. Was able to swing by the house for my 10 on that one. Sitting back in Albany waiting on a load again. I am #1 on the list!!!! Maybe it won't be long.:biggrin_25525:

    Brought a Yuengling load up to Griffin GA and they were quite happy to see me. Seems they ran out of Yuengling two days ago! Was unloaded in record time and went on to the house since I live 20 minutes away!

    Sitting a couple of exits north of Mechanicville waiting to deliver tomorrow. Got to spend the afternoon with my son, he lives near here. Had a great time.

    Started snowing when I left Weedsport and it was off and on all the way over til I got near Albany then it stopped. Cold but not snowing.

    My thread was pretty far down the the index so I guess I haven't updated for a while. I did back off on my submissions on here to let the following groups to add their bits and experience. And enjoy reading them as they come.

    I'm at the house for a few days off. I was in Trenton yesterday but the door was closed on the class. I trust everything is going good with Bill. Maybe I'll see the class out doing the Millis 500 Friday when I go back out.

    Drive hard but drive safe!
