    By the time I hit High Point, I'll have 5 hours of clock with none to be gained. I'll probably delver tomorrow morning and then sit in a hotel over night. Have 21 to gain the following two and then home Friday, so I can haul Wednesday.

    Dropped at Browns Summit. It took an hour to get me a message for which dirty to haul. Got that and no BOL.

    Called High Point and they're faxing it over. I'm tank washed back to Wilmington, so I'm going home early. I've got 4:38 on my 70.

    With nearly 10 on my 14, I'll stop at the Blue Beacon in Haw Creek to get Big Ugly a bath along the way

    Glad to hear you made it home safe.

    Ahhh...Wilmington. Back in the day, I spent quite a bit of time doing service work at Dupont Edgemoor.

    He is talking about Wilmington NC. It’s a lot nicer town than That other one.

    DuPont was planning to close that plant in Edgemoor. I had some nice runs out of there including one that would take me right by the house. Production was being shifted to Mexico.

    Got a load out Monday morning headed for TN for delivery on Wednesday. Memphis will have me load out headed toward NC. They have a load for Southport due to deliver Friday morning, so I'll be trying for that. That'd be a total of 1400 quick loaded turn around with a couple of hundred empty before taking my wife out for a good weekend.
