Redmond or.
Picked load in Kent wa and have my 1st stop here at 7am in the morning. Guy in store said if I wait on the street for an hour I could park on the ext next to rolldoor.
2nd stop is at 0830 am in bend or and last stop is at 1500 km north bend or.
Seco d trip picks up in Springfield or on 04/12 b4 1900.and delivers in Tracy ca on 0415 0900

 

Is Tracy a Safeway load?
I've had several in that area, but most were Safeway.

If so, it is good you have a 0900 appointment. They can take a long time to unload.

 

Kingsford charcoal del to nfi

 

Coburg or at the t/A.
Delivered my 3 loads today. The last Sears in north bend or. Didn't give me back the first 3 b.o.l.s. only his. So called car when I got here.
Was my mistake and being in a hurry to get to shipper. I didn't check to see if he gave me the whole thing.
My dl said the shipper In Springfield or closes at 1900 tonight for the weekend.
So when the manager signed his bills. I just grabbed them and left.
Gonna run to lathrop tomorrow. I dont deliver till Monday morning in tracy.

 

Lathrop terminal.
Tried to fuel. Only one pump was online. Card reader said others were offline. I was on lane 3 so I backed out and drove over to 1. Someone tore the o e hose off. So now they all don't work. Have 1/4 tank. So should be good to go. Only have 11 miles to Tracy.
Tried to tcall load and guy at window said I have to ask planners in pheonix.
Not calling anyone on the weekend.
So will end up doing another 34..
Need to get my meds refilled this week

 

As I was leaving the t/A in Coburg or this morning. Saw a crst who was parked on that line by the pumps.
Looks like someone hit his truck leaving their spot. Pushed his truck into the bobtail parked next to him. Didn't see who hit him. Either he ran or was parked somewhere else on the lot. Saw the crst driver walked to the back so be might have been there.

 

When I got to the Inver Grove terminal this afternoon things were a bit crowded.
It was so full, all the fuel islands had trailers and bobtails parked there so no one could fuel.
I'm sure glad I stopped at the Petro on the way and called for fuel, as the terminal was my fuel stop.

So I'm back home now, and with another new computer.
I had to buy a new computer because the keyboard went out on the last one, and I can not be without a computer for a month while it is in the Asus shop.
I bought the exact same computer so setup was simple. Swap the M2 SSD from the old to the new and I have my original system back with no need to reinstall.

I'm setting this one up a bit different this time.
Instead of ditching Windows 10 altogether like I did with the last, I bought a 1TB SATA SSD to replace the HDD and I'll reinstall Windows on that.
I'll have Linux Mint and Windows 10 on 2 separate drives, each with a 1TB SSD. No boot manager with the way I'm installing things, so I'll just go into the BIOS to select the Windows drive when I need it.

 

Corning ca at the loves. Here for 10 hr break. Deliver to Hermiston or tomorrow.

 

Delivered that load last nite to Wal-Mart in Hermiston or.
Picked load of scrap paperin umatilla or this morning and waiting in dock to get unloaded at Georgia Pacific in Haley or.

 

Saw a great billboard today in SD.

Mexican food so good
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

I'm at the Hat Six in Casper,WY, headed to Salt Lake City with a fairly light load of cereal.
I can almost count on this same run whenever I get off home time. There seem to be so many of them.

When I went to the terminal to grab an mt I went inside to talk to my DM. I do not want to get stuck in the far west until my next home time again, like is likely when I go to SLC.
He showed me the bubble map, and there was almost no green except for the SoCal area. And only very little bubbles of it there.
It could be the holiday this weekend and/or tax time, but it seems there is little freight moving anywhere right now.
Either that or, Swift is flooding us with newbies.
