    Here's my first real experience with snow JohnBoy, not much at all but still enough to get a bit of a feel for how it is with driving. My wife and I will be heading to Florida in a few hours so it will be atleast another 10 or so days before I have to deal with this again.

    Merry Christmas to all you guys, JROTRA, Voyager, and anyone else I might have missed.

    I'll give you a call later. I just got back from the Vet. Both my Labs needed their shots and check up. It only cost me $495 this year, last year was a little more.

    Being a nice guy and helping out in a pinch. No more for me though. They can find someone else to do it next time. That run can really try a man's patience. There is way too much sitting around waiting for loads.

    Well I don't drive for Calex but enjoy following this thread. I should be home late tonight and have vacation all next week so that will be fun. Plan on rolling back out at the beginning of the new year.


    Just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas to you and the family and to all the Calex drivers on this board.

    At the end of the day we all go through the same issues in this profession. It doesn't matter who one drives for, just be safe and enjoy your family this holiday season.
