    I want to thank all the teams for taking off
    This weekend. Miles are so good we ran out of hours again.
    Third cross country trip in 5 days, using hours we get back
    Each day trying to get back west now.
     
    SheepDog Thanks this.

    Still trucking west on borrowed hours.
    I hope they don't repower this load, with
    a team coming off hometime.

    Well I want to work and I'm getting nothing. I'm ready to head back east and drop off this student. Looks like I'm gonna be sitting in W. Sac.

    Are you under a load or waiting for a load? Thought you
    were looking to roll. I dont like to sit. There are loads to run,
    Loaded trailers ready to haul. They just need to get a load for
    you if you want one. Also repowers are needed all over.
    of course you know all this better than I do, I'm still a newbie...

    what a lazy couple of days. Yesterday was awesome, today was a waste. We got a B-PM at Peterbuilt in Fontana. What a great difference between there and Freightliner. In and out in a few hours. Load was the next day so we checked into the hotel and had a very relaxing evening. Picked up a reefer trailer Thursday morning and then our load got canceled and the new load picked up in Bakersfield on Friday at noon. So we headed to the Pilot at Castaic and called friends of Anne's who live a couple of miles away. We spent an awesome day swimming and laying by the pool and then I made ribs. This morning we drove over to Bakersfield for our Noon appointment, arrived at 11:45 and 5 1/2 hours later we were loaded, then we scaled and we are 1000 pounds over gross. So here we are at 7:45 and they are finally back in the trailer taking product off. Loooong day of nothing. But I guess this is payback for a days layover pay for swimming.
