I might go, I am in the area for a couple of days. Sure would be hard to turn down a load though, as I have not worked all week.

Okay quick. Did anybody's schedule change. Going now... Not going now????

We are here waiting to see you Jim and other EO Members! We had a load take us close and we could not resist the temptation. Molly has all ready also made new friends. We will be parked near the Chainsaw Guy looks like he is going to make some pretty cool stuff!

So it "sounds" like you have picked a very peaceful place to park

Be there around noon.

I'm in Bloomington at the moment. If I don't find a load out of here, I'm going to deadhead home for the weekend. I only live 45 minutes from Wilmington, so if I end up heading home, I just might have to stop by there tonight or tomorrow.

Ok, i let toledo at 7:45 this morning and was that the expo around 11:00. I went down with one thing in mind, to talk to recruiters. It's is 3:38 in the afternoon and I am back in toledo.

I spent a little bit time just chatting gathering basic info with a few guys and then spent and more time with Mark at Bolt. I'll be at Bolts office here in Toledo on monday to sign the papers work monday then take some time to find a van and upfit it as i want it for now.

I did meet Jack Berry from here, good to shake your hand Jack, hope to see you again. So while I went down there with a purpose and went a bit beyond it (i didn't figure i'd be leaving there with a business opportunity) I guess it could be worse, not sure how just yet, but there is always that chance. And while I do know the VPof Sales for Bolt for alot of years, the rest of the people that i met today,Mark, Kelly, and Anne, oh and Jack also, all seemed like all really good people.

So there you go, we will see where it goes from there.
