Don't worry, Sammycat. I had clear sailing all the way home. My southbound load was a D&H so I was able to stay ahead of the weather.........to a point. I camped out in London, KY and woke up to some light freezing rain. No real travel problems with the exception of 2 delays caused by inverted 4 wheelers. I made it home, on-time, Friday late afternoon.
Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to Wedge for this great thread and to all the other participants. I am home for the holidays and will take the truck to the shop today for loose king pins after 65,000mls. The guys at Meritor must have had a bad day when they banged that one together. Enjoy the holidays and obviously it is back to work since the world did not fall apart on us.
wow..... Wedge- maybe some day you should write about all the OTHER stuff you have done in your careers before you started driving! So glad you got home for Christmas!

I applied last month and was good-to-go for orientation a couple of weeks ago until Austin called to say the acct (Duncan,OK) was closed for now, but would I like SE regional? I said let's talk again after the holidays. But even the regional gigs they are advertising pay .38, .05 more than I'm at now. Are you home every weekend?
