    Well I think Murphy jumped to someone else. About 10 am they lifted the closure westbound and I jumped out as fast as I could. Almost to Or. now and my appt. was pushed to 1700 on wed. Nice and easy run now even Vic could do it.

    Well maybe he could... :biggrin_25525:

    Slow week for me this week, went home early due to wife's uncles funeral last week (he had alzheimer's got out of his house and was killed by a pick up truck)... left out Monday with a short (for Holland anyway!!), next load is VERY tasty though...picks up in Lyndhurst,VA and goes to Portland,OR for Monday early evening (too late in the day to make this weeks cut) so I will be starting the week out with 50 miles short of 3,000....setting up for at least 4,500 I would think.....maybe more....

    Positive thoughts to your family.

    Glad Holland is keeping you well fed in miles AND getting you home for family.
