    Well I've heard that, I think they haul a lot of midds and soybean meal. I believe Highside knows more about them than me. Kansas probably knows about them too.

    I've run into Robles here and there, usually at Cargill. Been running the NE these days, so I don't see anyone when I roll through most of the time - nice and quiet.

    In NY at the moment, sitting awhile and resting up after a few harrowing days getting back out again. I got thrown off schedule due to repairs, and now my Thurs-Fri load is my Fri-Tue load LOL all of 360 miles. Just hope my reload in MD is waiting for me on Tues headed back down to GA. It's amazing what a single day can do to you - the cost of repairs wasn't bad - but revenue lost could be 4 digits!

    Hope everything is going alright out there - the forums been quiet so I'm hoping everyone is busy at home drinking and trying to burn meat! Have a safe weekend, and remember the veterans that got us here at the cost of life and limb!!

    Well, they cut my rate that I would charge for running midds on holidays, so, in my book, YES!

    Happy Birthday to you, too (40 myself this year in August)!

    You know you're getting old when you think about the last 20 years (when you're young they didn't exist :) ). Personally, I wouldn't change much, or it would screw up what I have today..... but it would still be a blast to do it all over again!
