Roehl Driver Check In

Getting loaded at Kraft in Beaver Dam Wi...heading to just south of Columbus....530 miles and a day 1/2 to get it there....was late for my getting loaded mostly due to the fact that the power went out last night in the house..and it killed my alarm...luckily when I did wake up it wasn't too terribly late but was rushed to say the least...plus I had to get reefer fuel cause I needed a min of 3/4 tank to come here.....it was a comedy of errors this morning...I got stuck in construction on 151, behind school buses on the last day of the school year...all delayed me and made me 20 minutes late...grrrrr...but hey...its my LAST WEEK here at Roehl...then off to the otherside of the fence where its greener...I just hope its not astroturf...

 

Thank ya. I can't take full credit, they had a tarping machine I had to use since they don't allow you to climb or walk on the wood. It was pretty cool, just lifts it up, moves it over the trailer and i just lowered it down. I lucked out with having two new lumber tarps with flaps.

Today the hardest part will be untarping and folding them lol. I have 4 rows back of plywood, each section about 6-7 feet long. I went a little over kill with 4 straps on each set haha. I wasn't going to risk this stuff walking on me. I wanted to make dang sure it was secure.

Just wait when there's no tarping machine! Lumber tarps suck!!!!!!! As for my rolling method for my tarp.. That went out the window real fast when that wind was blowing. It was difficult. My lumber tarp is the size of my side box. I had to kick it a couple hundred time to get it to fit.

(this might be the perfect time to turn it in for patching!!!!! Haha joking)

I need to refold it but it's been raining all day so far

 

Just got home after finishing up training. Finished Friday and sat until Wednesday waiting for my birth certificate. Everything is good to go now. Got drill Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Then hope out with a trainer!

 

Yeah its raining here too. That's what sucks lol
