Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

#### Pete, I totally forgot about the coffee, I still owe you! Great meeting you in person.

 

Seriously Rich, the flag deal on the moon, really? Talking to Brian lately?.....lol Do you really want to get me started about that Hollywood movie they put together in 1969 about that purported moon landing? Wait, they have a couple of so called moon rocks in the Smithsonian that look like something from the western part of Arizona on I-10.

 

Sitting in Pine Bluffs Wyoming with my first drop done. I'll leave out at daybreak to drive the 385 miles up to Dubois to get my second drop off. I went that way last winter when I went up to Jackson Hole, it isn't a particularly good 200 miles up there in bad weather. Tomorrows day will consist of 385 miles up, dropping off 3 coolers, then 195 miles back down to Rock Springs. Hopefully I can make it to Little America and take my 10, then I'll get up early Tuesday morning to drop in South Jordan Utah, then head up to Prineville Oregon for Wednesday.

 

Glad yoda didnt make a bets this weekend... he did have faith in the ravens but don't worry we will be back stronger next year

 

Made it 704 today. Tomorrow's goal is 709 to Tucumcarri, NM. I should get to the Final in Fremont, CA an hour before delivery with 2 hours on my 70. Hopefully I can make it to the 49er for a reset

 

and you want to go to the 49er for 34 hours
because the food is lousy
the fuel is expensive
and the truckwash is a joke

oh i forgot your a ravens fan

 

I got food, I dont use any wash in Cali but Three Sisters and if I need fuel I can get away with 75 Gallons. Im tanking in Kingman on the way in. And yes WIN OR LOSE I'm am a Ravens fan!

 

I've been here at Abilene for 3 months now and I'm very happy and fortunate to work for such a great company. I keep meeting driver after driver here with years of experience that could drive anywhere but have been with Abilene for years. I just got out to Cayon Country, CA with a Hill Phoenix load and met a driver here with 19 years experience and has been with Abilene for the past 11 years. Turns out he lives in south Florida as well only a few miles from my house. Small world at times. The start of the year has brought great miles. The trip out to California from Richmond was 2593 paid miles which nets me 4862 so far on this pay period.

 

What? Moon rocks from western AZ? Did they get them off that UFO that crashed there before they trucked it to NM? LOL

 

Lololololol! Thats great!
