A bunch of useless crap
Published on August 30, 2007 By MasonM In Blogging
The past couple of days have been a tad tough. I picked up some stuff, steel parts, in Milwaukee and hauled them up to the yard, loaded and secured my own load which was a mixture of air units, a military truck cab, and a pavement roller, and started for OK.

I had to make delivery in Seminole, OK before noon on Thursday as they were knocking off for the holiday weekend. I need to make delivery at the second stop, Texarkana, TX (military base) before 1:00PM Friday as that's when they knock off for the holiday weekend. My final stop, Houston, TX can deliver Saturday morning.

I pulled into Seminole at 11:00 this morning. Just in time. I made my way down here to Texarkana after that. I'm bushed. It's been a very hard couple of days of driving but I am now on schedule. I can relax, drink a few beers, get some much needed sleep, and move on from here.

It's been a tough couple of days but so goes the trucking biz.

Glad you made the times as you planned! I know you did some mad driving to get it all done. You deserve it, have a beer on me when you're cooling out!

Will you be stuck in Houston for the weekend?  I guess it is a chance to rest up, but not the place I would chose.

Thanks. Yeah I had to run hard to make it but the hard part's behind me now.

Not my first choice either, but I'm hoping that they'll be able to line up a Saturday reload to get me out of their. Not likely, but there's a slim chance.
