    I once had to back in a Swift dedicated Walmart truck into the dock otherwise that driver might still be trying to hit it.

    Well, the saga continues. Now they want me to run out to Port Neches, and load at 7am tomorrow morning. Then bring it back to the yard and drop it off. Pick up a loaded tube for a Friday morning delivery in OK somewhere. Come back to Pasadena and swap again for my loaded one and book it to Paterson, NJ. Guess I'll do a restart along the way.

    At least fuel at our yard is $2.13 a gallon

    Looking forward to a nice bowl of cream of chicken with rice soup and a salad. Haven't made those in a while.

    Family size can of cream of chicken soup, can size amount of milk, and a bag of 'boil in the bag' rice. Nothing complicated, but nice.

    Finally got a good dashcam... Enough shopping around and while I spent far more than intended, I'm happy with what I got. As an added bonus, I can pull video off it with my phone at any time.

    I'll stick a video up later. Right now I'm running on not much energy. Going to "hide" the power cord and later when I've got more time I'll try and install it via the fuse box. (If nothing else, I'll order the model down for my personal vehicle and use the hardware kit there.)

    G'night folks. I'm going to bed. May your grease and dirt never be exposed to the sun. (Keep the shiny side up.)
