    Got to Keasby last night truck keys weren't where I was told they would be so they set me up with a hotel room which I had to pay for then get reimbursed for later then today at 7am got moved into my truck did my slow maneuvers and finally by 3pm got a load assignment that I pick up a loaded trailer here Sunday morning head to Indianapolis by Tuesday and unload it. Since it's not a long load and I have loads of time to get there I am going to try and relay it

    Well truck can only do 60 so I figure take me a full day cause 10 hour break and full plus fuel and pre/post trips I figured about 24 hours total and they gave me 50 hours so I am going to try to relay it for more miles on different load
