July in the land of Load One

Mighty hot and humid in Taylor. Lexington looks pretty warm later this week for the Expo as well.

Good morning, all. It hit 95 here in Georgia yesterday, and today looks to be about the same. The A/C is doing an excellent job, never had to run it any higher than low fan and 3/4 cool. And I'm parked in a full sunlight campsite.

Going to go take a shower, go for the morning walk around the grounds, and than start doing a complete interior wipe down of the van.

Hoping for a decent load today, All I can do is hope.

Stay cool, and have an awesome, profitable day!

If it covers the entire Van, I'll let you do mine just to cover the rust lol.

Back in-service at home.
Finding the inside van temp to be 100F, I'm not too excited heading back out without A/C

Well I didn't have to wait long. Picked up in Yale to somewhere west of Toledo Ohio.
Actually, I'm not sure where I am. But I'm hungry

Got a load from El Paso to Georgetown, KY. Since we are not planning on going to the Expo dispatch will have to find us a load out of there as we are surrounded by 100's of expedite trucks. Might DH north past Cincinnati.

Yeah but if all the trucks are out of service.... not a bad spot.

Also if you get there Fri or Sat wouldn't hurt to stop for a while and look around. If you got a load to Lexington then it's meet to be for you to be there.

I delivered my load Wed evening and decided to put myself OOS. Drove to Fort Mitchell KY and getting the van service and after that heading to Lexington!

Sitting here in the load 1 service bay feeling very nostalgic . They are removing my Qualcomm and lettering.

Thinking about all of the adventures I have been on over the last 9 years. Expediting has been very good to me but also not so good (health wise).

So with this I say goodbye to the life. Moving to hopefully bigger and better things. Only time will tell.

I would also like to give high praise to John for running a top notch organization and truly trying to have the driver come first.

Stay safe and gods speed.
