The misadventures of a rookie tanker yanker

Unloading Castor oil in Maryland Fall MO at the moment. Had an uneventful drive of a little under 950 miles.

Almost done with the unload, 1 hour delay, and will be running to Markham next. Got the tank wash but no following load.

I'm guessing something down SE since I need to be home for my Son's award ceremony on Thursday. Hopefully down to GA over the weekend and then towards home after that.

Stay safe, y'all.

 

Good run. I'm running a dedicated to Raeford and back for Markham. Wife and kids will meet up with me for a meal after I drop and hook. Our house isn't too far from Raeford.

Told Jeff he can give that run to me anytime. He's sending me right back to NC after I return, so I can be at my son's award ceremony. Great miles this week and extra family time. Can't beat that.

 

Loaded today and ran out to the J at the 240 on 65 S in Indiana. It's less than 50 miles, but I'll be rolling at 0630 on a Saturday.

Will be taking the Hillbilly down and back. Heard north bound has a short truck detour. Glad I'll be empty going back.

Plan on making Markham Monday afternoon, as early as possible. If I'm lucky, I'll catch a 0200 ish load out of Elwood headed back towards NC on Tuesday.

As good as I've been running, I almost wish my youngest had another week of school. Lol

 

Thanks. I certainly don't want to be," that guy."

 

I just happened to see a Superior truck on 95 during CDL school last year. Before that, I can't ever recall seeing one. It wasn't until I started looking into them that I saw more. Funny how that works.

 

Ran 617 loaded miles going south over the Hillbilly yesterday. Did my drop and hook, met up with the family, and then ran up to the 77 on 77 in Wythville.

Wife and kids brought me Zaxbys for lunch. I'm eating leftovers from that tonight.

Spending the night here in Wythville. I've got time to grab a shower and watch the game tonight. I'll run 614 miles empty back to Markham tomorrow.

It's been a good week of trucking.
