    Got my reload info. Have to load in Arcadia, Fl with a load of water melons going to Milton Pa for 5am Friday. I'm 140 miles to the farm and have to be there at 2pm so I'll leave out around 10am.

    I'm picking up a load in Medina NY right now for Milton Pa for tommorow. Wonder if its the same place. I barely made It here b4 they closed at 8pm, coming back in from Canada. Got stuck in Toronto traffic and it cost me a good 1.5 hours. Now I only got 2.5 left and that won't get me to Milton. Oh well will have to shut down somewhere. Milton Pa is right off 80 by the used to be Petro right?

    Are you going to Weis? If so, from Medina, it looks like you could get yourself over to 15 in New York, and take that south to US15 into PA. Take that down to Williamsport and get on I-180 (east or south). That will take you down to I-80. Stay on I-180. It changes to PA 147 as you go under 80. Continue to the Industrial Park Rd exit and make a right at the end of the ramp. Weis is about 1/2 to 1 mile down the road on the left. You can't miss it.

    Indeed John haven't been down that way since last year.. since I noticed they changed that Petro to I forgot what. A pilot or loves or somethin. And Voyager yep I'm going to Weis. But for now I'm shutting it down with only 30min left on the clock at a rest area off 390. Also yea I figured I'd have to grab 15 off 86 and right down thru williamsport. Ppreciate it. I've been up and down that way before but years ago, so I'm a bit rusty when it comes to that route. As long as I know I can run 15 straight to williamsport/180 I'm straight.

    15 is now 4 lane from the NY line down to 180. Stay on 180 until you go under 80 then it turns into 147. Stay on 147 about 3 miles to the Industrial Park Road exit. Turn right, about 3/4 of a mile on the left is Weis. I've only brought produce in so I don't know how their procedure works for dry goods. In any event you will need Weis's PO# at the gate, so make sure you have it b/4 you get to the gate. They also want to see your drivers license too.

    Just a couple pics from the road on my first trip.

    1. Dry conditions and grass fires in New Mexico.
    2. Taking a break at the T/A in Vegas.
    3. A rainbow after a shower in Las Vegas.
    4. Entering my favorite state in the USA.

    John Boy;
    I've been tracking your post closely. I tell you, your company is one of the few that have no negative postings, and I like that.

    I recently complete an application in Calex Logistics, and recently Brian communicate with me, getting interested in my qualifications, to the position of regional driver.

    This position involves travel a lot, is not what I did so far in my history of Been a driver, I had always worked in the area of Ltl.
    Calex Logistics this week will give me a road test in the
    Terminal Pittston, if i do well i will join your "new home"like you Had Said in previous posts.

    Well, wish me luck! and hopefully i will see you around!
