    Yeah, that’s about what I figured.

    If that one’s yours, it looks good.

    Yes I was. Dropped it in Sparks, then bobtailed to Scofield, UT to pick up another box at a coal mine and delivered that in Anaheim yesterday.

    Back to open deck, picking up a howitzer tomorrow morning at the Yuma Proving Grounds.

    My very first time behind the wheel of a truck was in '77. I passed the written test and got in my brother's '74 Ford cabover with a 13 speed.

    He drove from Seattle to Pendleton, then gave me the wheel. "Only use the clutch to start out, then never use it after that".

    "Okay".

    Cabbage was under construction. With the rawest of newbies behind the wheel I was freaking out, trying not to hit the concrete barrier on the right and not get hit by trucks passing on the left.

    I was successful not using the clutch to change gears, but that transmission took a beating.
