    Hi, everyone,
    Well, I'm not actually in So Cal right now, but hope to be in a few days.

    For me, getting into trucking was a "late-in-life" career change. My background was mostly in accounting and Corporate Management for various companies (not truck-related). Then I got a wild idea in 2005 that residential real estate sales was what I wanted to do. Did ok for a while, but then you know what happened to that market. So here I am driving OTR for Con-Way Truckload---and love it. Wish I had done it years ago.

    While on the road, I occasionally get inspired and make up a little poem. Nothing serious usually, just fun. I may post some of them once in a while. At home, the wife and I like to go to our local casino (Morongo Casino in Cabazon, CA - near the Banning scales) and just spend time together.

    I didn't even know about this forum until a couple days ago, when I ran across a link to it from another website. Looking forward to lots of fun and info here.

    See you somewhere on the highways.

    Also known by my Fleet Manager as "Bad Boy". She actually gave me that handle. I'll tell you about it some time. :biggrin_25517:
