    Back in the saddle. Left early yesterday to pickup a load of scrap paper headed to Big Island, VA in BFE. Ended up loading out of Big Island and taking that load to Northborough, MA. Sitting in Mildale, CT tonight with about 2 hours to customer but unfortunately my appointment isn't until 1900 tomorrow. May roll out early in the morning and if I can't unload until my time I will still be near my 10 hour reset to keep rolling. Was hoping that I wouldn't have to deal with any more snow this winter but alas a fools dream.

    Hello I start with Roehl on April 11 2011 I will be in the Refrigerated division. I used to drive for Transland several years ago. Has Roehl went to the automatics yet, and do the truck have APU's???

    Been running real hard this week. Currently waiting to get unloaded down in Lakeland, FL at the Sam's DC. Sure enjoying this nice Florida weather and hope I can stay out of the bad #### for my remaining time out this trip. Hope to be home around 4/10 so not too much more time to dodge the bad weather I hope.

    Well kind of a subpar March but I suppose not too bad since I was off for 7 days (3 due to breakdown, 4 home time). Managed a little over 9K miles. Posting a link to my past year of driving for those interested so you might get some idea of what to expect mileage wise.

    Today is also my one year anniversary with Roehl. I still have roughly 10K more miles to fulfill my 120K mile commitment for total loan forgiveness.
