Just like every year, load1 had the best looking booth at the show.

So true, I am surprised that others don't follow in Load Ones footsteps on Making their booths look more elegant, homey and comfortable, while Inviting.

Seems like that was the best Expo I never attended. Beer butt chicken today. Navy Son leaving early Tuesday for Miramar. Had some good times, so I guess I missed the Expo for good reason.

Good Monday morning to all. Back from the expo and playing catch up today!

The show was nice. A lot of walking but I needed it, lol. Great hanging out and I hope even more of the load1 family shows up next year. And thanks to Mr Elliott and the rest of the load1 crew for the hospitality they show to us drivers and our families, I know we all appreciate it.

We agree Tom, thanks John, Senior, Junior, Brian & Matt. Especially John for all the hospitality and support but that goes for the rest of you also !!!!!!!!

Delivered in San Antonio. Ready for another good load.

How's Laredo looking today. Quiet here in San Antonio.

jelliott · Jul 18, 2016

Not sure. Might want to check with ops.

Been empty since 0730 and not a single call today. I thought this was the week things picked up.

You got a good load to South Texas in one of the slowest months of the year, it may take more then half a day to get another load. Just sayin!

So far this year all the months have been slow. Just surprised that we didn't get any calls at all today.

What I'm saying is if it were me that delivered to South Texas on a Monday in july my goal would be to make sure I got something delivering North before the end of the week at least. With many auto plants on shut down South of the border I'd be happy to get anything this week. Hopefully dispatch does their thing and gets you something soon. Good luck!

I have faith that dispatch will get us moving tomorrow.☺

Just got back from the airport. They have a long day ahead of them. His truck will not be there until sometime early August. East coast to west coast. It was supposed to be there this week.

Good morning everyone. Another day...another airplane. But this one is off on family vacation. But......wife's sister has to have some big heart surgery and they moved the date up on us. So wife sent me with daughter and her friend as we are meeting other family and couldn't reschedule. Going to be an odd vacation. I feel like the divorced dad here. LOL.
