    Welp... a very nice and conscientious driver (dill hole) dropped an empty at some point. Fate determine it would be loaded for me.

    I delivered this morning at 0400 for a live unload and then had to boogie 98 miles by 0800 for this drop and hook. I arrive on time for my load and drop a frickin’ brand new trailer and while pretripping the trailer I'm supposed to hook I see there’s no license plate. Upon further review I see that the license plate bracket and the license plate light are gone. How the hell do you lose that with out a single bit of damage to the DOT bumper etc? I’ll give you a partial reason why. This trailer hasn’t had an LS inspection since 04/20.

    Lazy ####s dropping their #### ups.

    I’m headed towards the Dakotas once the new license plate bracket et.al gets here and installed. At least I’ll get some cooler weather. I’m really over running the a/c.

    Dave had to cancel the next few loads after this one. They were good loads. Dave told me the only thing he could promise me was that every once in awhile you get it broken off in you. Guess it’s my turn. The good thing is Dave will find me new loads, and being the hopeful soul I am maybe they’ll be better.

    Now that is a sweet picture. Thankyou Dave.

    In someways one could say that cream corn is a fancy way of calling it grits. (kidding)

    Do you suppose this radiator might need to be replaced?
