    Pilot in Cartersville, GA. Off to AL in the AM. All US highways. Yahoo!!!! I can hardly wait. Once I'm empty I get to waste most of my day getting a trailer fixed that some piece of crap dropped on me with issues. Would be nice if people would do inspections and actually try to keep the equipment in good working order.

    Wound up bringing trailer here to Atlanta. Getting my B Svc done in the AM. Then off to ???????????????? Did a driver assist unload today at a tire distributor in AL. 325 tires out of the trailer. Way more work than I expected. Man, am I feeling old and tired.

    Close but no cigar, mitrucker. Camping at a customer in Norcross, Ga. Live Offload appt at 07:30. Then pickup in Tucker, Ga and take that to Savannah. Did a 4-stopper today. Then ran this short run from Gaston, SC to Norcross. I had a landing gear handle sticking and as soon as I leaned into it it released and my face dipped into it's path. I won't be eating hard food for awhile.

    Here are my HUB miles for my first 3 trips out with Knight. 29,251.6 hub miles accrued in 67 days available for dispatch. Equates to 436.59 hub miles per day average. So far, they have been gradually increasing. 407 first trip, 453 second trip, 467 third trip. My first trip I went out for 30 days and worked off recap the whole trip. Second and third trips I took my resets and the miles per day jumped up. If I ever have the time and energy, I will try to calculate my paid miles.

    Ice cream plant I. Sickeston mo. They only take about 10 minutes to load but trks get stacked up because they only use one door and take 20minute breaks in between trks. Last time I was here was 5hrs this time been here 3 so far.

    Picking up a load here in Albany, GA (BFE). Going to drop it at the Olive Branch terminal. Lots of US Hwy to travel. Still trying to figure out the best way to go. Think I am going to try to stay on the interstates as much as possible. This load delivers the 29th in AR. I got lots of time I figure. The way I got it figured, it's only about 25 extra miles to stay on i85 and i65 instead of doing us hwys. I think it wil be easier in the long run.
