    I don't work 8-hour days. I'm Midwest regional, not local - though it feels like it at times. My company usually pushes me right up against either my 14 or my 11, like I am right now. I drove 10.5 hours in the past 24 and am sitting in a dock with no activity in the back for 2.5 hours so far. And I have less than 2 hours left on my 14. We don't have to spend much time pondering the 70 hours and usually reset every week, though not always, so I pay attention to the On and Driving lines in case I have to recap. I just don't get many 500-600 mile days like Sharpp does.

    They had me unloaded before 6, and I was back at the Peelot sacked out in the bunk before 7. I'm going to chill here for the day, then head down to Dayton around 6 or so.

    Well....I made my 1st stop in Wilsonville, OR, yesterday morning, then my final in Grandview, WA. last night. I got a pre-plan going from Grandview, WA. to Russellville, AR. The funny thing is that I also got another message telling me this is the 1st load on a new lane for JCT, and that I am to be JCT's 1st impression with this Conagra VIP deal. They also said not to swap off this load unless granted permission by one of two specific individuals (I don't remember their names without looking on the qualcomm).I don't mind though...it's not like I have to kiss any (_l_)....just business as usual. LOL. Ya'll be safe out there...catch y'all later!

    Lemoore is pretty easy. Some drop/hook, some live. Has overnight parking right outside the gate if needed, and has a scale (you'll need it!) on the property. Trudging up all those stairs to check in when it's raining is about the only hardship. Lots of good loads come out of there. Where are you heading?

    It's Annie, his wife. He is parking right now, will be on soon. We are at the truck stop 30 miles from Lemoore. A 76 station. We are having fun, saw a lot of cool things so far on this trip! Have traveled from FL to CA and saw everything in between! We are loving this company! I will let him tell you where we are going, just got backed in to a space. In a few....


    He is is doing all that shut down stuff that you all have to do. I am taking pictures along the way and posting them on my Facebook page. If anyone is interested in seeing where we have traveled so far with JCT, send me a friend request, say JCT. My name is
