    So started this week off by picking up in St. Joseph and heading back up to Sheboygan, WI to Johnsonville..

    Showed up at Triump in St. Joseph and hooked my trailer, as always I do a walk around to inspect the trailer.. Surpris, Suprise, Suprise!! 5x bad tires that have inside wear, 2 of them are down to the belt!!
    Headed up the hill to the loves and sat there for the next 3 1/2 hours.. Took advantage of the time and took a shower and eat breakfast..

    Made it to Johnsonville about midnight, and am getting unloaded as we speak..

    Waiting to find out what my turnaround will be?? Almost want to stretch my legs and get a long load.. But we will have to see what is available...

    Love this early morning chill, I know misery is coming with each day that passes, but it's my misery and I love more that I will ever let on..

    Hope you are all being safe and having a profitable day!!!

    So you did a drop and hook and that's when you noticed the tires or is it just normal wear ?

    Hey, my husband will be driving a Volvo with the ishift!! :p He tried not to. He could've gotten a 2015 Pete or KW at Quality, but they were only 8 speeds and the very basic of base... For just a little bit more a week, he'll get a brand new Volvo with the full warranty. I think he just wanted the Volvo because we just traded in my van for a used Volvo XC90 for me, lol. He wants to be like me! :p

    So my husband is in Wichita for Orientation this morning! Last I spoke to him, he was waiting for the shuttle to take him from the hotel to Bruenger. I'm so excited and nervous for him!

    Too funny!! I hope he likes the ishift, everyone I know that has one swears they love it...

    As far a shuttle bus?? Nope, just a pick-up they have the wash at driver pick up drivers in.. Bruenger terminal is old, they just did some reconstruction inside so that parts nice.. But tell the Husband not to judge the company based off of the location.. Lol
    Anywho I am going to bring this trailer I have to Wichita, it seems to dog leg and I'm sure that is what is killing the tires on it..
    I hope to get to meet him, maybe I can work it out to take a load back up to Milwaukee and give him a ride, save him some money on his rental.. Will have to see, I'll check with him when I roll threw there..
    But also, the people at Bruenger are just great.. And the drivers take care of oneanother so I'm sure he will like it, even tho it is Wichita.. Lol

    The Ishift is very nice. Drove one for 3 years and that dang truck could pull a hill to loaded at gross. I think he will like it.
