We once were offered a load, to pick up in the parking lot of the truck stop we were sitting at. We had to go around to the other side of the row we were parked on and put the freight on our truck. The sad part was the drivers partner had some kind of "attack" and could not drive, had to be taken to the hospital. All turned out ok for him. We all have to remember to try to take care of our personal maintenence as well. One because it will help you live longer and two because we need to try to insure we don't casue an accident do to our health. Layoutshooter

As yet, No Louisiana load for me. I went to the PU today and the freight had never arrived from Ohio. I did get about 135.00 dry run pay for the 135 mile DH. It might be for the best in the long run. I mighta been stuck down by New Oreans for a while. Oh well, I guess I wait it out here at the J in Burns, TN.

HAHA Moose, it took me a minute to get that. It felt real good painting over them! You still getting miles over there? Hopefully no more 93 cents allin. By the way if you ever switch, I'd recommend painting over their logo, they stick them on there real good!

I didn't even notice the 8 less horses

 

[RLENT]

Thanks for the heads up Aristotle - I hadn't even checked it today .... just scoped out the radar and it looks like it's just west of here, all along the western hills of the Shenandoah .... it should be pretty once everything gets covered.

Glad I'm not driving in it though.

I'm relaxing at the Best Western in Jeffersonville, In. The truck is at Freightliner getting a new head gasket. This cold long neck sure hits the spot...

Did you get it fixed and how much are best westerns costing now?

yes they do and the locations never get old, even back to 2009 they are still as relavent<sp> as if it happened today

 

[DieselDogg]

Agreed...........

 

[Dakota]

I actually thought it was snowing on Jack Berry in Atlanta today

 

[highway star]

LOL... Boy, talk about ancient history! It turned out to not be a bad head gasket. It was just a leaking valve cover gasket that the Freightliner dealer screwed up when they put it on.

I don't recall the price of the room.
