    Other drivers, LoL. Dont know.. Heard some chatter on the radio, but couldn't make it out..
    An urban accented woman I talked to through a speaker box to get past the 1st gate.

    2nd gate an nice ~55-60 year old gent got me through the 2nd gate, & told me what lane, & row # to take the box to.

    Never spoke to the lift hand. He just popped it off & away I went. Another thing I hate about containers at a port is no one will sign a bol. Gives me a bad vibe..

    Out gate, just got waved bye cause I have my own trailer, no chassis.

    I know, I was surprised as well..

    The Can game in FL is another story. The Cubans got it sewn up, & magically don't speak any English when I try to talk to them about Can freight. Really I have 0 intent to get in that line of work, but out of curiosity I ask lots of questions. Still waiting on them answers.. o_O

    I had the opposite going on this morning. I hit a frost heave so hard my blower motor knob parted company. The b@stard is somewhere in this truck but I can't find it...
    Drizzling rain and 40ish degrees in Alaska this morning.
    Had to stop and dig out a pliers to get some heat in this thing.

    I get those at Kroger for about 6 bucks to make chicken noodle soup. I can't buy the bird and turn my oven on for 6 bucks.


    Morning #5 Time to stir the outhouse.
