    So we woke up this morning and called the office ... low and behold we had a load. We picked up from American Standard in Hutchins, Texas. We read the date wrong and thought we picked up today at 1500 but it was ready YESTERDAY at 1500. We got ready and rolled out and picked it up, was a preloaded trailer. We are headed to Menards in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. It has a delivery window of 8/11 to 8/14 ... we will be there early afternoon tomorrow. We run hard around here .... LOL.

    I am done for the day. 584.5 miles. We delivered and picked up not far from each other in Wisconsin. We are headed right back to Fort Worth, Texas .... about 10 miles from where we delivered to on Wednesday.

    Nice! I've done that load a few times. Fort Worth might take a while to unload you, but Dallas/Fort Worth area has pretty good reloads. Last time I delivered there, I picked up a preloaded trailer of tile flooring in Sunnyvale, and did a 4 stop load going up to Michigan. Previous time I got a preloaded trailer in Ennis going to New Hampshire.

    Sounds like you're enjoying your time there. Keep the updates coming!

    Question about ConAgra in Fort Worth since you have been there you may or may not know.

    Do they have overnight parking and do you know if they unload on weekends?

    We have tried calling several times and all we get is a full voicemail box. Our appointment is Monday at 0800 but we will be in the area early Sunday and was going to try to get unloaded early.
