Heading For Little Rock! Maverick

Picked up a single coil in porter Indiana at Worthington steel. I.got.right.in with no.wait. load is going.to mi.tech in murfreesboro tn. Stopped at exit.2 on I65 in ky. Last.decent place.to park. 71 miles.to.go in the am

 

I made my delivery in the fog. It was really bad all the way in to Mi Tech. While I was there, I ran into Juan. He went through orientation with me. He is now an o/o with Tennessee Steel haulers.
When I got mt, I got a load to pick up at GP, formally Temple Inland in Cumberland City. This load is going to Addison Mi. Since I am off Monday, I called and asked my fm if they were going to repower the load, or just change the delivery to Tuesday. He said he would find out. Two minutes later, I had a new appointment schedule to deliver on Tuesday. Sometimes you just have to ask the question in a way that makes them think of it themselves (-:
Got loaded and made it to the pilot in ky just past the parkway. I had a chunk out of my tire on the trailer, so I had it replaced.
Made it home around 0900 this morning.
Yesterday a suv full of young kids pulled up next to me wanting me to blow the horn. Since I was at a light, I did not want to scare the car in front of me. So I gave it one quick blast. You would have thought I just told them they were going to Disney World. They were so excited. The Dad driving got a big kick out of it. They started yelling to me that I was awesome....It put a big smile on my face....to give so much joy with so little effort!
Forgot to mention that I saw my old truck at the Pilot 12233. I went up and talked to the driver for a sec......great truck!

 

I was going to spend the night at the receiver but I have never been there before. It is dark and raining so i stopped at the pilot just 40 miles.away.

 

223 just off of 23?

 

Made a good decision not to go there and park.....very small. Got.a load assignment to pick up at ecorse and.go to Madison ms..960 miles.....single coi...sweet....but wait.there is more...:20 miles from.shipper got.pulled off and sent to atlas tube in Plymouth mi going to atlas tube in Chicago for.a 0500 delivery appointment. This place has u back in and.drop your trailer and.pull out. They load.two.trucks at a time. Hope to be able to make it to the gary yard tonight. This load is 315 miles
