    I may try hopper in the future if I get tired of reefer. What’s unloading like?

    Depends on the material. Some stuff hangs up an requires ya use a vibrator. Ya can also smack the rails with a dead blow hammer. Half hour to an hour unload time. Lines are variable depending on facility. Generally nicer people to deal with. They need and want the product for production in factory settings. I am delivering to farmers right now. Whole different world from pulling a reefer.

    How is the weather holding up? Your truck doing better with the coolant? That winter storm looked serious, I saw they were talking about blizzard conditions.

    Happy Monday brother! How'd that run in Michigan go? I've just been soaking in all this mild weather. With an exception of a couple of days, it's been quite nice in Memphis. Hallelujah.

    Gonna go to Michigan an load tomorrow. They're supposed to shut down Thursday an Friday cuz of snow. Doesn't make sense cuz the weather says snow tomorrow an Friday. Snow plugs up the screener an keeps em from cleaning corn. So hope i get loaded tomorrow. If so i will get that off Thursday. Then if the boss don't have another load i think I'll go home early.
