    Miami... Arizona. dead heading to some my 138 miles from here. picking up on Labor Day that's appropriate. heading to New Orleans pretty good start for the week.

    I can see a mine
    out my window where I spent the night... Wish I could have picked up there

    168 miles of desert and mountain driving yesterday. another 138 today and probably the same tomorrow.
    I just figured out... CFI stands for can't find interstates

    actually it was gorgeous driving I'm not complaining.

    Today, I was in Haubstadt, Indiana at the Pilot getting fuel. Conway decides to send me a preplan when I finished my relay at the Loves Truckstop . Keep in mind, I am 5 miles away from home, and they wanted me to pick up a load, and go to Louisville at Conway Freight in Louisville, and deliver to Kroger in Louisville. Heaven forbid, if it was a family emergency or even worse a death in the family, because they would want a driver to cover a load. They don't realize we sacrifice our time away, and they go home everyday.

    Thanks for doing that lowgear!

    Was fearing I would have to do a local coming back tom morning.

    Ick.

    So not driving my full hours starting out.

    Usually get over that and the whole driving responsible out of left lane leaving space in three days......50 minutes a day adds up! #### off fuelopps!

    Happy pay raise day everyone!

    South Gate, CA waiting on 10pm to deliver, then picking up a preloaded trlr in LA going to San Diego for an 11am appt tomorrow. Is that normal? 120 mile trip? I suppose it's ok because it delivers in the morning but short trips are usually not your friend.
