Well, I have hit the road again after rough week at home. Had to spread 9 yds of gravel over driveway with a shovel, build a walk way and cut a drainage ditch. Bush hog 5 ac out back, would have rebuilt the fence, but hey, got to have something to do next time home. Went back to work this morning so I could get some rest.
Left out at 4 am and went up to Hawkins, TX just north of Tyler to pick up a load of bottled water going to a Walmart DC up north of Tulsa, OK. It was drop and hook so was able to get it dropped this afternoon. Surprised when they gave me another load to pick up in Muskogee, OK in the morning going to Atlanta, GA for Wednesday morning at 3am.
Will try to add a few pictures tomorrow if have the time. Will depend on how far I can get toward Atlanta. Have a couple of bluebonnets along I-45 south of Dallas from the other day. Today shoulders hurting a bit after the last 4 days, and 10 hours of driving today.
About Me
- Travis
- I am married 32 1/2 years and live in E. Texas. We have one son and 3 grandchildren. Although I have BS degree and have tried management several times, I have found I am more comfortable just driving a truck. You keep your record clean and drive safely you will always have a job. When lost management jobs, I was always able to get one driving. I have always loved writing, haven't done enough of it to increase my vocabulary over the years, but no time like the present to start. Thanks to Eric and Jamie's living in China and getting me hooked on blogs, I have decided to write my own. I am a long haul truck driver and I travel 48 states. I have done this off and on most of my working career, getting my commercial license in 1972 just to pull uncle's dozer around town. If anyone follows this maybe they will get some idea what I am going through. What any truck driver goes through and what he gives up in his life. It is very lonely and not for everyone.
