Well this will be all new territory for me come September.. Hubby is into his 1st month driving and I plan to ride along. Not sure what to expect so have been reading up and here I am . We have been married 11 years, no kid's at home but we have 3 female Shi Tzu's
and of course they will ride with us...This could be a very interesting life changing experience for me
So any help of all kind's will be appreciated, looking forward to meeting all of you and the new adventure on the road!!
Quit my job and riding with Hubby

Welcome to the forum, Sweet Tatter! This is a great place to prepare yourself for joining your husband on the road. Many of the ladies here have accompanied their boyfriends/husbands on the road and I'm sure they'll be more than willing to answer any questions you may have.
A good place to start would be in THE LADIES ROOM with the following threads:

Welcome and have you thought about getting your cdls,and maybe team with your husband?
SWEET TATTER, Baack and Diesel_Smurf Thank this. -
Well you could get your cdl, but as a team, you are too give him some breathing room he need's too drive and rest , by breathing room ,i mean run after the bill's-sign and that kind of stuff, always been a day i needed a extra set of eyes , while backing into a tight dock and a hand held cb and hubby cb can do just that, there was days i needed too do laundry but couldnt becuse i had too be on the dock counting box's , so there's lots little things you can help him with, and the keeping company, beside the dogs is, great , but most company charge 100 a dog for damage.
SWEET TATTER, Baack and Diesel_Smurf Thank this. -
