Where is everyone #2!!

Sounds nice. I am already bored out of my mind and have to sit here until Monday.

 

Where you lding at next? Victoria or Houston?
I know the T/A there in Ganando there is nothing

 

Okay all my flatbed brethren, my son needs your prayers tonight. If you have heard about the mudslide near Oso Washington earlier today that took out six houses and so far 3 confirmed fatalities well 2 of those houses are his grandparents and great grandparents and as of right now his great grandfather is at Harbor View in critical condition and probably won't make it, great grandmother has not been found and presumed deceased, grandfather is at Skagit with a shattered wrist and compound fracture in his leg going into surgery shortly and grandmother is at Cascade with non life threatening injuries. I just got off the phone with him and he said they have lost absolutely everything, there's only foundations where the houses used to be but the houses were pushed into the river 1/4 mile away and are completely gone.

Now they are evacuating the rest of the valley down stream because once the pressure on the mud dam breaks it's believed it's going to take out the rest of the valley where my son, his mother, brother and ex-stepfather all live.

I'm trying to get a flight out but airlines seem to think in times of family emergencies that people are made of money. I could charter a private jet for what they want for a walk-up ticket!

 

Don't have anything booked yet. The Victoria stuff doesn't pay a whole lot. I almost pulled the trigger on a load out of Galveston to VA but they needed to take the wheels off and the load was supposed to be 26500 lbs which would have put overweight.

Pretty open on destination but want a decent rate, the only place I can't go is back to CO, my wife won't let me for another week and half.

 

Oh no! The rest of the family heading to Wa too, Cat Flyer?

 

Catalinaflyer, Your family is in our prayers..
Hopefully you can get out there and be with your son and help him through these times.
Please be safe and best wishes for all involved.

What the wife having her boyfriend or girlfriend over for a bit? lol

 

You trying to fly out of Toledo or Detroit.. or both.
Hopefully you can get a flight soon..

 

Maybe....

We have a Mexico trip planned for April 6 and I didn't leave home this month until the 14th. So I must work till month end at least

 

Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland, Ft Wayne basically checking all options but like I said the airlines seem to think when there's an emergency and you have to purchase a walk-up that you have unlimited funds.
