    New york city!!! pass the grits

    We and a lot of other trucks take the I278 across the Verrazano - Narrows bridge into Brooklyn from Elizabeth NJ. There are no tunnels that we saw. There is one overpass that has a huge sign all trucks must exit here, stay in the middle lane and follow the truck in front of you they don't slow...

    First time posting fears!

    Tennesseahawk I started thinking about our good friends and you are right we have met them through the forums or at the Expo! We have met a few at truck stops but the ones we really stay in contact with are through this site. Expediting is our life and affects everything we do everyday of...

    Something to do while sitting...

    We also have down time and often end up with the weekend off. Both of us like a clean truck and if the weather is good Bob will be polishing the outside and I will be cleaning the inside. I like to sew also, work on the computer and read. Bob has several Sudoko books and now he has an...

    Books on CD

    We also use audible.com but as of yet we do not have an IPOD so I write our books to CD's. We also buy the books from Flying J when they are on sale. We either trade them out with other drivers after we are done with them or give the books away.

    Some Breakfast Ideas

    There is not much better then a toasted extra chunky peanut butter and jelly sandwich. What I find my problem in the morning is that Bob sleeps in till about 10:00 at least and I am usually up by 5:00 and I don't like to rummage around trying to fix my breakfast. I usually end up grabbing...

    Boy Cheri you said it just right! It is a large family and with likes and dislike but we have to have common courtesy to make everything work.

    Panther Policy toward Pets and Passengers

    Rob is correct and you need to talk to your vet about the identifying marks. We have a blond cocker spaniel one of at least a million! She does have a few cute white spots on her chest and on her chin that we ask the veterinarians office to please identify on her rabies papers. You also need...

    Sitting in Passenger Seat and DOT

    Believe me I never could explain it either and when we first started I still couldn't explain it. All I can say is in time the 24 hour day becomes a lot easier and you look forward everyday to being in a new place and seeing new things. No matter how you try to explain it to family or friends...

    First time posting fears!

    When Bob and I decided to make our first post we about made ourselves sick. We had a topic we wanted to reply to but had never ever been anything but lurkers. When we finally decided enough was enough we had to post our opinion. I highly value our daughters opinions so I sent each of them a...

    Sitting in Passenger Seat and DOT

    Starting at 12:01 in the morning Bob will be driving and will stop between 2:00 and 2:30 in the morning and wake me. I will start driving about 3:00 a.m. and he will go to bed. I usually stop 3 to 4 times for at least 15 minutes to 1/2 hour. Bob will get up between 11:00 a.m. and keep me...

    EO CB channel 29, alive or dead ??

    If all of the expediters would use channel 29 we would leave our CB on. Now the only time the CB comes on is if the road is blocked and then just to find out what the problem is and off it goes.

    Atkins Diet

    Good Luck to you guys. Quitting smoking had to be the hardest thing I have ever done in my life! Never again will I go through that so that is my incentive to never start again. I felt like I was giving up my best friend even though the smoking was slowly killing me. Now 10 years later I do...
