    Home getting ready to head out again. Hauled those lovely screenings to Mcpherson. Was surprised that most of it came out, still had to shovel some. Then went to Clay Center, KS, loaded beans for Bunge. The elevator in Clay Center is one of those I have to back into. The doorways are not tall enough for my stacks to clear. It's also narrow. Arriving in Emporia (Bunge) found long line of trucks again. Then when I unrolled my tarp, the tension rope broke. It was well worn, I think it may have been the original one, and my trailer is the oldest one in the fleet. 1-1/2 hr later got unloaded and then to the shop to get the rope replaced, as the tarp doesn't roll worth a hoot without it.

    Then loaded with screenings (again) to roll back to Mac. However looked at my hours, and didn't have enough of my 14 to make it back, so parked at yard for the night. I'll be heading out shortly to do a repeat of yesterday...

    Dave..

    I have made one run so far. I found out the SDV "system" is down.
    If it comes up in time I get a whole 164# pallet to have somewhere by 16:00.
    If the system doesn't

    OMG OMG an hour ago i got a message over the satetlitte about an appointment change I looked at it and thought my first drop was pushed back 23 hours. I about threw a fit good thing it was just messages over the box.I yelled screamed and cried about being in the shop 2 days waiting on a swap then sitting 34 hours waiting for the cows to die only to wait to get to an appointment. After dispatcher let me whine she says "Pete it is the final they moved up for you so you wouldn't be waiting......sigh. I dont know if i hate being wrong more or having to apologize but I did both dang nab it...sigh sigh sigh
