    Yes! And the Black Hawk was across the street from the Anchor! I drove for Watkins leased to Zero and a 352 COE Pete. 350 cummins, no jake and a 9 speed. Cabbage was always fun! Married the Redhead from the Black Hawk in ‘82. It’s now 2018 and I still can’t get rid of her

    Hi Walter,
    I saw your post from 7 years ago and wanted to thank you for such a complete and thorough account of your driving days. I just happened to remember a guy, Sam Bishop, in the seventies that I worked with for 10 years out of Portland, Oregon, North Pacific Canners and Packers. Zero hauled our frozen vegetables weekly out of Salem or Stayton Oregon with sometimes a final pickup in Kennewick, Wn. I dispatched
    trucks throughout the U.S. and worked with Sam during that time. He was a jokester and a very wonderful guy to work with. I was lucky enough to meet him when our company reps would all go out to dinner with him during his business stay in Portland. He was such a gentleman and everyone thought a lot of him. SJ
     
    gsmith2332 Thanks this.

    I drove for Zero in '90. Texas to California. Mostly West Texas, and Oregon/Washington state. Apples to West Texas, caramels to Washington state, Meat from West Texas to Chicago, and back. Loved it.
