Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Here's my whopper of a load for the weekend... like driving empty.

 

Last weeks load ny to nh...1x10's. 1-8', 2-10',1-12'. All cedar.

 

NICE!! Hopefully it paid well. My load above was just the three conveyor boxes (that's why they are centered) until the shipper realized that was all I was going to carry. They added the motor/drive unit in front and the small wooden box behind it to the same consignee. It didn't make any difference to me. They paid for 20,000 in freight and still only put about 10,000 on the trailer.

 

It's the greatest duty of a man, to show the next generation what it means to be manly.

As a kid, you never forget that man who showed you how a man walks the walk and talks the talk. In this day, they're not even men and women anymore, just males and females. They throw this term around, " AlphaMale". That's a Man. A bull among steers. Cajones, people. Makes all the difference in the world. Without cajones, that 8 second ride on Bodacious becomes the calf roping contest. And the running of the bulls in Spain becomes another pride march.

MJ, thanks for holding up the tradition. Next adult beverage is in your honor.

 

You gotta tarp that? I always make them square the front and back if I have to tarp it.

 

My grandfather was that man for me. I fall short of his example in some aspects but I strive for them.

 

Like chewy said, it was my uncle who was that man for me. He taught me everything. Like MJ, its someone else that I consider my father than my actual father.

Technically I have a step daughter and everyday I strive to be the father that my uncle was to me.

He taught me everything i know about being a good man and putting in an honest days work.

 

Doing the same for my step son @macavoy. His dad is in his life but is a terrible disciplinarian and more of a Disney dad.

 

Nope, she got a good one. He has nearly 20 years in the Army now and I have 4 grandkids. They have had their rough patches but she has always been a stay at home mom.

Funny thing is that the first time she got pregnant I told her she was having twins and she did. Then for the next ultrasound I told her she was going to have one boy and one girl, and she did. She came home and said she hated me for some reason. Could have saved her the cost of the ultrasound. Sooooo, the next time she got pregnant and was heading out for the first ultrasound I told her that I was not going to say a word about triplets. She threatened to kill me... LOL
