    I might just do some reefer when I retire.

    Oh you mean the trailer kind. Of course it might happen even sooner at a few companies I know of. Suffice it to say I need the ins.

    That's it. I delivered my last load for Gordon Trucking/ Heartland Express. Dropped the truck at Pacific, handed the keys and fuel card to night dispatch and said see ya when I see ya. Waiting for my taxi cab to take me to SeaTac airport to get out of here. Kinda surreal a little, a company I had wanted to work for a long time, I got my shot, and I'm leaving, just like that. It is what it is. But I never signed up for Heartland Express, never signed up for a lot of things. But, it is what it is. See ya Gordon, nice to know ya. Time to start my new/old adventure. When the taxi comes, that's it with GordLand Trucking Express. And look at that. Finished that sentence and here's the cabbie. Be safe guys.

    I just passed 4 Gordonland trucks today on I83 south of Harrisburg. That's the most I've ever seen their trucks out here. But unfortunately, I see lots of Heartless trucks.
