<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wsyrob, post: 2838473, member: 10487&quot;]<b>9/20-27</b></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Had a great long weekend in the Virginia mountains. I highly recommend the Virginia Creeper Trail bike ride. My fat ### was able to do a 17 mile bike ride on an old railroad bed. It ran next to a white water river most of the way with 10-15 bridges. We rented beach style cruiser bikes with tractor size seats in Damascus Va. For about $20 each(bike rental included) they drove us up to the top of the mountain. Its down hill the whole way with&nbsp; a couple of places to stop and eat/drink along the way. I live 100 miles from this place but have never done this trip before. It will be something I will do as a day trip for many years to come.</p><p><br /></p><p>Monday I headed out with a dedicated Plaquemine La out and back load. Got back Wednesday around 15:00. Delivered the load Thursday at 6:30 AM and am off until Sat or Sunday. High Point is having a truck rodeo Saturday and no domiciled drivers are dispatched out until after it is over. That kind of sucks for me but I understand the politics of it. At least they gave me a good load on the front end. Hopefully I will get something out Sunday to help the bottom line. I am enjoying the time off though and really can&#039;t complain. My son is coming home from college for the weekend.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Fridays check finishes up the 3rd quarter. Even though this was my weakest quarter of the year it still totaled $15,337. I have had 64 days home through 3 quarters which is a little less than in years past. I define a day home as waking up and going to bed at home running 0 miles that day. Getting in Saturday morning and leaving Monday night would count as 1 home day in my book even if I got to spend lots of time at home after coming in and before going out.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Hopefully I can get out west again in the 4th quarter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
