A new chapter begins and a new home for the Morehouse/fcc orphans

Still hauling grain and still happy being home every night .
The gentlemen that trained me retired a couple weeks ago so I inherited his black w900L studio sleeper with a 550 cat 13 speed with matching black trailer .
Harvest will be done in about 2 weeks for my boss which is good cause grain handling facilities are running out of places to put corn and beans and things will go back to 50 hour weeks and no weekends.
Haven't missed otr one bit !

 

That sire

That sire alcohol plant on I 29 south of council bluffs has been full for over a week and only receiving corn as fast as they can process it .
As far as i know most of the elevaters around here are full to the point where they are out of room to pile it outside even .
Friday I ran 2 loads of corn out of 1 elevator to another elevator where what I dumped went right on a train .

 

I drive by those guys loading DDGs there on my way to the pits , man that stuff reeks ! ...and yes they are very nice people there .

 

Take my lunch to work everyday, home every night so no 18.00 showers , no paid parking , no trip planning for parking if I can find it , seldom see interstate roads unless I'm empty, paid for every minute of my day , never deal with jerks and make just as much as I did running the road .
Other than harvest off on weekends.
I can see why otr is losing it's appeal to older drivers ! It certainly has for me .
