    Got a call late yesterday while dropping our loaded trailer in Colton. Asked to bail out dispatch. Hooked a load and am now getting empty in Vegas.

    Called Publix store manager and have permission to park on site tonight. If all goes reasonably well, my 10 should be up right around the 8am delivery time. Sent my new FM a text asking to get me out of there quickly as there' s little place to park around Miami. He said he would. Fingers crossed and we'll see.

    Hey @JohnBoy

    You were so right about that load of hangers coming out of Houston being a cluster the first time. Circle the huge city block to find S/R then during the process to talk to three guards and three different shacks.... Pass said snacks EIGHT times in total... For a simple D/H... lol

    Will be much easier now doing it the next time.

    Thanks for the heads up about it.
