Where is everyone #2!!

Yea that's me. I'm heading out on a load right now or I'd buy coffee.

 

Received a warning ticket for "unsecured tarp" on this today, it was ballooning out a bit, caught a nice gust of wind and the dam thing just exploded, 3 miles afterwards this trooper rolls up behind me and gives me the good news, I was in between exits when it happened and was planning on hitting the ramp he stopped me on and removing the shrink wrap.

 

Mod job must be cuttin' into your good tarping sense. Didn't we teach y'all better. Rope, rope and more rope.

 

My rubber bands work fine, the tarp that I put on is exactly as it was when I put it on.

 

I made my way across 20 today from Alabama into Louisiana getting chased by the storm the whole way, kept running in and out of it.

Stopped at the scale house in Mississippi to show em my permit decided to take a picture of my truck.



This guy was also there, sweet looking KW.



Got to the receiver, unstrapped the load and stowed everything, then the forklift operator came over and told me he was not going to be able to unload me because the forks on his lift were too short. He calls his boss, boss tells him to tell me to put all the straps back on and take it outside of the gate and wait till morning. Mind you by this point it is after dark and below freezing and everything is soaked.

I called my office, dispatcher tells me drop the trailer where it sits, do not move it, return for it in the AM. Going to be an interesting morning.

 

I know how you feel went through that 2 weeks ago with the first of these loads I took.

 

Stuck in Duncan SC at the TA. I tried to deliver at GE in Greenville only to be turned away. They closed down 30 minutes before I got there. Lost my awesome load back to FL as well. What a crappy day

 

Oh I was thinking you put a tarp on the radiator and that's what you lost.

Just heat shrink though. gotcha.

Still I might have put some rope around it if it looked like it was fixin to tear up.

 

Friend just texted me. They are iced in Atlanta,GA. Be careful

Camping out in fort worth. Pilot. What a zoo.
