Drop and hook in Indy. Then dead head to Huntington, IN.
Got to the road to find it closed due to a washed out bridge. With no time on my clock, I had to call for LEO assistance to get backed out. Luckily, I got a SUPER cool deputy. He even took me for a tour of the area to help me find an alternate route.
Got to the shipper with -38 on my 14. Thankfully, after some begging, I can sleep here tonight.
The empty I grabbed from Indy has a tsndem slide issue. (Sigh) This load has time, so I'll be spending most of the morning at a Petro tomorrow.
I have toothpicks holding my eyelids open right now. Still a bit until I get loaded. Dropping this one in Wythville. New gate code, by the way. FYI.

Dead head move from Portland back to Colton. I called in this morning and spoke with Kimberley about trying to get me a load to the house, even through West Memphis so I can be home and help my wife pick up the mess from this hurricane, an hour later my QC blew up. 2 load assignments aka a preplan. Drop this empty in Colton, hook a loaded one there going to our Ellenwood Ga yard, hook a loaded one there that delivers Sunday morning in Miami. I might be vocal at times, rant occasionally, like last night in Portland, but let me tell you this, Kimberley came through Chris Nycum came through, and I'm so grateful I work with some great people.
This is only the second time I asked for something out of the ordinary, and both times the company came through. Trucking? It sucks at times, but boy do I work for a cool bunch of folks.
A few pictures of my house shuttered up.
