    Twas another 4 ticket day.
    I thought I was going to M&M but Roland wasn't there so Crystal says she has 2 10am cut off Air France runs. And that I needed the trailer. Hooked and said have you got a number or two for me or should I guess. She sent the first number and said the second was too heavy. I asked how heavy as I will sometimes cheat going to an airline.
    She sent 17,000# I sent I agree too heavy.
    Loaded the one which was 2851# and got rid of it. And went to the truck stop and backed in but did not unhook. Read, messed with the phone.
    Roland called and asked where I was. it was right around noon. He says so you're done with the 10am Air France? And am I hooked. Sheesh.
    He said Sumner requested a stake bed. And 2 or 3 drivers weren't working.
    ibid to him dickweeds! He said yes.
    So go to Del's Plating and get a basket at every bit of 100#.
    Go overland using Hillcroft which turns into Voss which turns in to Bingle to get to Sumner. Load about 1000# in 2 pallets, 2 baskets and a box.
    Took it to Vanguard which is near Hobby. Then to N2It container for what turned out to be 10 275 gallon totes which wore me out strapping. They went to Texas Molecular on Independence Parkway in Deer Park. Sent empty at 4:47.
    No further communication. Fought 610 at I-10 and 59 to get to the truck stop and drop.
    Got home 7. Going to bed REALLY soon!

    Truck got two brand new Michelin steer tires and PM... Now I am at a Philllips 66 truck stop somewhere in OK about 15 mins from receiver... Sky is kinda clear and moon is back to silver again... it's quite PRETTY and totally FULL... :yes2557: It's right in front of me... Wish I had that roof window in the truck... Would absolutely LOVE to see that gorgeous full moon shinning on my bed... :biggrin_25520:
    Will deliver tomorrow morning and then.... who knows... DSP had a load for me when I left terminal but a few mins later it was cancelled...
    Oh well... I would like to go back to terminal cause they replaced the Navigo in the truck Peoplenet with CoPilot and the darn thing doesn't work at all... :biggrin_25512:
    I prefer my GPS and my own routing but used that Navigo sometimes to compare routes and clarify some questions...
