    Well, bear in mind that there are different branches of the industry.

    For me, it's leaving with a full load weighing north of 25k, driving 120 miles, delivering the freight in 14 or so drops over the next 4 hours, and looking at the now empty trailer with pride as I await the 120 mile ride home that serves as my wind-down time. :)

    Sometimes it's not the truckers that are the "perverts". ;)

    Today and yesterday were a special treat. Yesterday drove up from Laughlin NV to LIvermore CA. Beautiful greenery in California this time of year. From the Mojave desert there is a hint of green and as you enter the Tehachapi mountains the greener things become. On up through the Central Valley seeing all the almond trees, grapes alfalfa and wheat fields taking off. Then the Altamont hills all green and pretty as any Irish isle, windmills as far as the eye can see. Just some of my favorite things.

    Edit, meant to say I made the return trip back to Laughlin NV and got to see all that California Sping beauty again.
