    On my way to Texas. Going to unload tomorrow, then I head back up to take the twins to some Anime convention. I won’t let them wander by themselves so I have to pay for a badge to go too. Can’t be too careful with all those weirdos out there.

    My youngest daughter has her birthday on the first day of spring. Sucks I won’t be there the day of, but it’s always nice to know people are happy knowing winter is over on the calendar and unbeknown to them, are celebrating her birthday. She’ll be 11.
     
    Feedman Thanks this.

    I’ve discovered that this “pilot only” restriction on fuel cards is annoying .
    I’m finding myself diverting out of route to find fuel. (East Texas problem really)

    I’ve learned that I can’t be afraid of my engine and components. They’re mine now, so I can not be afraid to take something out or unhook something . Whatever I do, if it screws something up, it can be undone. Just like exploring a computer for the first time. You can undo anything that makes it not work.
    I have to remember to wash the engine more often though

    Happy birthday to yours also. I have 2 daughters and the oldest is 14 I had to go get her "boyfriend" for the birthday party this past weekend that was not fun. Just seems like yesterday they didn't want to have anything to do with boys. Boy am I getting old.
     
    88 Alpha, T.Rucker and Knucklehead Thank this.

    JB Hunt keeps calling and emailing me even though I opted out years ago. New recruiters with too much time I guess.
