    Well I started driving in 1973 hauling logs. In 76 I got a union job for U&I sugar that lasted 3years till they sold the trucks to get rid of the union.Hauled milk for 3 years. Then April of 1982 I bought my first truck And flatbed and leased to Davis Transport in MT. Was there till August that year. Came home put my name on the door got my own authority and never looked back. Hauled Ag commodities and genreral freight local never for brokers have always been luck to haul direct for shippers. In 1995 I bought a Hazmat tanker MC 331 and know haul for several local fertilizer companies. Its been an up and down 27 years but woudn't trade it for anything.
