    @Mushroom, where are you scoring that Left Coast load from? Hey Brian, I go as far west as I can! My favorite area to run is the Pacific Northwest but So Cal is pretty cool too, a little too crowded for my liking in LA & SD but West is best! I know Cory gets Reynolds loads going to UT, OR, WA & Nor Cal quite a bit.

    I was asking about flooding the other day, just curious with Miss. and Ohio rivers rising.

    Hawk,

    You know you can run the west if you want to, it's just some of us don't run it much.

    sitting in In. at Spiceland taking a 10, I have a Whitwave load going to Cedar Falls for Wed. morn.

    Be safe.

    Hawk,

    Sounds tricky that 5 top Reynolds, yea I've heard that "it pays good" crap too, I'm down with the two Norton's. I'm currently in Waterloo waiting to deliver in the morning.

    I saw truck 732 eastbound on I74 in Indiana this morning.

    I almost waved, then went "You'd look crazy, dummy, don't do that."

    The reason I almost waved is because I'm tentatively scheduled to come in for orientation at Sheldon on the 31st. "Tentatively" because I'm quitting my current job and heading home for a couple of weeks to help with the birth and home-coming of my second child. So I've taken the job offer, it's just an issue of which day, exactly, I start.

    See you guys soon.
