    Small little T/S just East of Little Rock. Looks like a small Swift terminal in here with all of the Swift Trucks I saw when I came in. Love these lite loads, flat land to drive and now wind. Sure like the MPG. Hate the idling in 97 degrees. QC still says 8.1. Now if can get a lite one from Lancaster to PHX, that would make my week as far as fuel. Then turn and burn back to Cols so can get ready to start this new dedicated if all approved.

    Stuck here in Lancaster. Frt slow today, and tomorrow worse. Planners can not figure out why Cols sent me here to get to PHX. They could have looked at what is available around here. They did send a pplan, pu a tcall here and del Tuesday, 300 miles. They say that I am about 15th on the list.

    Busy few days for Abby and me. Picked up this heavy load out of Sacramento bound for Grandview WA, lots of time on it and almost used all of it because I could just not get motivated to run hard. Stayed at Willows CA terminal for the 10, started my day around 0200AM and pulled over some time later when I noticed the temperature was about 64 degrees and went back to bed without an alarm-- just said wake up when you wake up.

    Anyway saw a beautiful turkey in Sacramento, some beautiful 300 foot deep gorge rest area along US97 and got hit by deer in my driver's side headlight. Murphy's Law says this stuff happens on holiday weekends when Kenworth is closed lol. So I turned down a load going to Tracy CA. MysticHZ I know there's a preloaded trailer over in Stanfield going that way for ya lol.

    one of the nice things about l/o is being able to turn down loads to tx. take whatever you can get to leave that state and never look back. it's a hard lesson i have had to learn and re-learn.
