    You've got more patience than I do. If they don't have me planned by tomorrow night or if my plan picks up Monday afternoon, I'm going to the motel 6. Especially because I'm finding that to stay cool in these summer temps, I'm having to both idle and run my apu. 30 hours would be almost as expensive as a hotel room, without the comfort. So much for the carrier COMFORT pro.

    Pulling a trlr now that we picked up at Colton, looks like it was dragged in alley between two brick buildings just a little too narrow to fit in between. I mean this thing is ugly! Sent damaged equipment macro with plenty of details even stating that it should be routed thru Sapulpa, but no response.

    I'm trying to remember how the trip went. I think I got there about 4 hours early and parked on the street, then rolled in and got unloaded. Rolled back out to street and finish break and roll over 4 more miles and unload final. From there I jammed to a washout and was the last truck of the day to be washed out and had to jam back to MBustamonte for a reload, barely got there with 10 minutes before appt. allegedly a preloaded trailer that I had to wait on all night. Then they called me for paperwork but the girls were having a hen session so I went back to bed lol. Came in after my 10 was done and signed all the papers and left to weigh it. it was just under 30 hours in and around that area without a shower and hiking over to the Rialto truck stop for food.

    My first level 1 is a solo driver since I started driving in 2011 was just last year. Before that I had one level 1 as a team driver.

    Heh...
