    Hey Martin, are you with Keen? I'm in Ft. Worth waiting for next load, left just after six thinking I would beat traffic, hell no. Terrible. I-820 is so narrow with the barriers right on the fog line not to mention the temporary lines that are made for a go kart not a big truck, pretty sure I off tracked into other lanes several times. That's truckin I guess.

    Good tip, in the store they will steer you towards the devices they get spiffed on. The iPhone is not one of them, probably won't even mention it to you if you go in.

    Nothing in California worth waiting on, everything needed to load today (which I've never gotten an answer to my Counter question which is "What If it doesn't load today"?) or Tuesday afternoon, east I go

    Congratulations and good luck on your new job milskired.

    Worked my side business today and did real well so it was a good day.

    I have two loaded trailers at the shop to haul to St Paul tomorrow.

    Good luck on the new job..
    Question how are you getting home?
    The Mrs. coming to get you or the dreaded grey dog?
    Anyhow hope all goes well and bank your overtime money as sometimes it can be long cold winter before they start pouring concrete in the spring.

    Was some private guy! Ended up meeting me at a Walmart on Loop 20....Only in Laredo.
    Then followed him to some backroad off 359, and backed into his driveway! Whole place looked like a junkyard, so no hanging out there for me.

    As said, I am with Midwest Specialized out of Mn. We load at Keen all the time though, for better or worse depending on the facility location.

    In Galveston,Tx now, get a baby D5 in the AM then heading for Jackson,Ms. Not a good area for us, so this may get interesting...this one pays good, but gonna grab the Vaseline for the next one me thinks!
