    Lmao well he lives a little farther away than my other students so weve had to do some arranging for pickups in Trenton and such which cost him a day of driving on Mondays a few times. He only needs 2500 miles he will have that this week which is his full 6th week then test out next week. Then Ive got another lined up for Oct 17. If all goes well I should graduate 5 students into their own truck out of the 6 I've taken my 1st yr as a trainer. And I didnt have a student in Jan/Feb/ June. And all of them in their own trucks are still here so far.

    Shoot #19 is nothing lol. Ive been to Trenton on a Sat night where there was not room for another truck. School lot filled all the spots filled. Lined up on side by scale and parked 2 and 3 deep lol. Richfield same way. Literally like every inch of concrete with a truck on it. Always 1 of main reasons i always try getting away from a terminal asap

    I must have lucked out. Never had it that bad at any terminal other than Cartersville. Not sure if any of these you mentioned were around holiday weekends or not. I made sure I was home on all major holidays because #1, I wanted to be & #2 I suspected nothing much would be happening work wise and I would be doing nothing anyway.

    I was out for Memorial Day and Labor Day. I had been solo for less than a week when Memorial Day weekend rolled around. I got 3 loads all at once when my weekend dispatch came in. A load of scrap paper from Louisville to Cherokee, a load of paper from Cherokee to Saratoga Springs, and then a load of beer from Baldwinsville to Cartersville. I was happy as a pig in ####. Then for Labor Day weekend it was almost as good.

    Oh yeah, that's a gravy run. If I remember correctly, Fulton NY is Patterson Whse, the old Miller plant. Easy to get to and acres of room. You'll like it.

    Lol I'm sure you'll be ok getting there mid week. May take a little time to get something back out but doubt you'll be sitting multiple days like is possible if you get there late Friday's early Saturday's
