    Steve, that's the closest we've been since our Calex days.

    Got to BH in Groveport Ohio at 11:30 last night. Dropped the trailer then parked in the little staging area and went to bed. Got up around 7am, made a pot of coffee, toasted a bagel with cream cheese and enjoyed my breakfast while reading the news. At 9am the QC lit up. Pick up a loaded trailer there with 5 drops between Ft Worth and San Antonio. I start dropping noon Sunday and finish up 9am Monday. Nice 1500 mike trip with 4 extra paying stops. It's all good in my nutty world.
     
    Lonesome, Weeble Kneeble and EtaN Thank this.

    They have him with another trainer until I get back from hometime on the 29th. It seems every time we are suppose to meet up I'm sent in the opposite direction.

    Indeed! After Marion I ended up picking a load in Grove City, OH...just a few miles from where you were in Groveport.
