An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

I'm surprised they didn't figure a way to add some to the ones that have been retrofitted with a tire carrier. All they have to do is wire a switch to the continuous power circuit and run it down to a strobe circuit and mount some lights. I wonder how long before we start hearing Travis talk about the CSA points drivers are getting for running OD freight without strobes.

 

What's shakin'?...I did feel an earthquake..the town Heber in this article is just south of the truckstop I was at when I felt it. I was on the south side of I-8 in El Centro.


Swarms of quakes shake Salton Sea region in Southern California, seismologists say

 

I'll be in Arlington by early afternoon today.

 

Made it to the yard, dropped the load and parked. My dispatcher is helping with orientation this week, they have 12 new recruits this week. So the person helping cover his board said I might be here a bit longer than planned because there is an overload of drivers in the area again, so I might get a 34 in. I can live with it, the miles for this load go on May's miles since I dropped it on 5/1, so I am starting the month with almost 1500 miles, if I don't leave until 5/3, at least I'll have a fresh 70 to burn...and they know that I can still make a stellar month with a day off here in there.

 

No time...no time....gotta roll or else I won't get inducted into the 15k mile club before We-lie takes over.

 

Got my next load. Pick up in Redmond, WA tomorrow with a 5 stopper starting in Long Island going all the way up to Boston. And I get to pull my 1st new trailer.
