    Picked up my Alaskan bound load. It's a dry van, so nothing picture worthy. I'm shooting to be in Anchorage by next Friday. Going to reset either in Cheyenne or Billings, MT. Just left Lubbock an hour ago. More updates as I have service or Wi-Fi.

    fast update, made my way around the snow in Wyoming and now in Havre, MT. Looks like have to reset in Canada this weekend and already got a preplan Monday from Calgary to Tomball, TX. Miles are big lately, was setting up for a good month until I found out I need to get back through AZ and get a new license that shows corrective lenses restriction, they only give you 30 days from the date the letter is sent to the day they suspend your license. Must think everyone is a local driver or something.

    Sweet run...tomball is 10min from my house...

    im definitely looking at seriously coming over soon.. I have 2 1/2 years flatbed experience..Probably sometime right after the first of the year.... I read you guys post every day so keeping and I see how you guys are running over there but so far I like what I see and I definitely like the idea how lonestar keeps you guys moving and aren't afraid to empty move to keep the trucks rolling.
     
    AZS Thanks this.

    I'm in Denver right now. After letting Claims and Maintenance know that my windshield was bombarded yesterday on US 84 in Texas by a truck hauling gravel going in the opposite direction, they decided to drag their feet in getting me to a shop. Getting the windshield replaced tomorrow morning then going to try and get to Billings to do my reset for Monday.

    our Houston yard is right off BW 8 by the airport so you'd be pretty close to that too it sounds like then. Thanks for reading!

    Made it to Billings last night after having my windshield fixed. Gonna take my 34 here and resume Monday morning. I should do pretty good time in Canada as they allow 13 hours of drive time per 14 hour period. I printed out a list of Flying J fuel stops in Canada to help me along the way.
     
    Sleepy68 Thanks this.

    From what Ive experienced, they allow you to fuel wherever, with a couple exceptions... The TA on 35 just north of DFW is a no-go, and the Stage Stop at MM 71 in Idaho is also a no-go. but, other than that ive fueled wherever ive needed to, or wanted to.
