Delivered to San Antonio first thing Mon morning. Then sat at the Flying J waiting to pick up a load of cardboard this morning @ 1am due in Fort Worth @ 7am. First night drive and in the rain and lightning. Made it to the consignee @0530 (tip- learn military time now). 2 trucks ahead of us so we had to wait about an hour or so to get a live unload. Waiting in the terminal in Grand Prairie for our next load. Should be heading east so my trainer can get his hometime Fri. and I should get to spend some time with my family too. About halfway through my 150 BTW hrs. and rollin!
rubberducky68 and tna Thank this. -
I enjoyed reading this. I have no intentions of going OTR again but it's nice to read a positive post about someone enjoying their company and training/trainer. Be safe and have fun.
NSBGearjammer Thanks this. -
Ran a load of groceries up to Food Supply in Oklahoma City and turned a load of dog food back down to Texas. Tomorrow we're headed to Mississippi with some Campbell's soup for Wally. Some of today's highlights were conflicting GPS directions to the shipper(my Android won but I thought a GPS catfight was about to break out between the two female voices)haha. Next, I was coming up to a place where traffic was stopping, loaded, with plenty of room to bring it down. All of a sudden, 5 cars from the other lanes cut in and my braking distance was cut in half(with 44k in the box). I had to bring it down quick. And tonight, I got us into a Pilot that was filling up quickly and was not able to get it in the spot. But a JB Hunt driver(that had tried to recruit us at the Target DC) came over and said there was an easier spot around the curve. I was able to hit that one with one pullup. WHEW
Hint- get the loyalty cards. I'm drinking free coffee tomorrow!rubberducky68, tna and DocFrank Thank this. -
Picked up the load from Campbell's(it was V8 juices not soup, although they had enough in there to live on FOREVER) and made it down to Mississippi last night. Who ever heard of a place charging $50 for unloading on a drop and hook? Anyway, had Pandora rocking all the way down(select ZZ Top and the channel will play the best classic rock road music EVER). Picking up furniture going to GA this morning. We're going to try to make it home tonite(fingers crossed). Haven't seen Momma and the kids in two weeks(except on SKYPE). hint- unlocking the driver seat allows it to slide forward a little when going over bumps and transfers the shock to your legs, not your back.
tna Thanks this.
