Good night from...

Yep. I like that Grand Island Bosselman/Pilot, too. Good food, but they're mighty proud of it.

I'm at the "barn" in Central Upper BFE tonight.

 

A few miles from the ocean in California's evil hat. At least its a nice cool 60* out.

 

The way this week is going they sure as hell would so I'm gonna just make them do their job right, not up to me to risk a ticket because someone else can not do their job correctly. Then I'm gonna ##### like hell if they do not pay me detention for my time after 2 hours yesterday and however long I'm there today. I just hope Swift bills them and doesn't just eat it to shut me up, only way a place like this will learn is if it costs them $$$.

 

If you want hunnerbunner, I can set you up with a sweet load this Saturday that delivers Sunday-- picks up in San Fernando and delivers to Torrance. Quick, short run down the 405-- easy money!

Usually what works pretty good is to take the 2 pallets that are side by side up against the front trailer bulkhead and pull them back, put 1 up against the bulkhead in the center then the next pallet center behind it then continue loading side by side to cube out. Sometimes they single/center the last 2 pallets as well.

As a side note I have noticed different names describing pallets as "skids" and "boards".

 

That's right "carmageddon" starts tomorrow. Ill be heading to Texas and was sweating a bit that I would get sent through LA from Phoenix this weekend.

 

They will if you have documented all of your time to and from with QC messages. Was told to go ahead and mac 1 and 2 on the rework. Even though the message will be rejected due to already being L called - it will document the GPS as to the times back at the customer.

Petro on the west side of Nashville. T call in New Boston tomorrow. First time in Michigan as trucker.

Cold.

 

Saratoga ill rest area. Drop on am and hopefully t call is waiting in gary terminal for me to head home with.

 

Newton, KS. Enrte from Cedar Rapids, IA to Fontana, CA. Del Monday morning when I get there. Before you ask why I am south, about 70 oor miles. What I will save on climbing the mtns in CO, UT and NV, I will save in fuel getting down here. Only some small hills. Rather about 7.8 vs 5 climbing those big ones. Now just hope for a pplan on Sunday so can figure out what do to about fuel before get into CA. Guess that I also get to stop at one of my favorite places to give this ride a bath, pending weather.

 

And how is it going now? Get to phoenix yet? I know what your saying about those mts,they routed me thru co on the I 70 but i went over the little rockies in Arizona,and am averaging 8.2 mpgs half way across the country.Um newton ks,kind of hot there today,eh?went thru newton about 2pm and it was smokin' hot,better now in missouri,tho humid.
