I'm glad that we got to come help! Zak and I had a great time and loved hearing all the trucking stories that y'all had to share. Thanks for the tips you gave us. We made some great friends this weekend! Phil, I hope your cold is getting better!

Well I am quite relaxed this afternoon, having spent three hours on Cocoa Beach today! I love this job! Well, here is the update on Zak and me: I now have my license (yay!), we ended up being home for 3 weeks due to that process and the air conditioning on the truck not working. We left again...

That is a great website! I bookmarked it, thanks for the tip!!

Team Caffee, its too bad we won't get a chance to meet up with you this time. We are home in San Marcos Texas right now... Just waitin to get the truck out of the shop (air conditioner wasn't working) then I can go test for my license finally...Looks like we won't be in service til the end of...

I know what you guys mean! They have been "renovating" IH 35 in New Braunfels, (just north of San Antonio) for 6 years. I think they are adding two lanes there. Almost done! And the 70/75 interchange in Ohio I think has been going on for 2 years now. My parents live about 20 miles from there.

Those vehicle inspection reports have woken me up in the middle of the night a couple times already! We'll deliver, and Zak does the paperwork and then hours later in the middle of our "mandatory" break it sends that message. Grrr...

Well it would be one way since we would be driving the truck home...But we would have to rent a car, and we have the dog...My car gets pretty good gas mileage so it works out better this way. Although flying would certainly be quicker.

Well, hard to believe but we are starting our new adventure tomorrow! We are driving from Texas to Ohio for orientation, then driving the truck back to Texas so I can get my license here. Within about a week and a half from now we will be "in service" and on the road. I have just spent the...

Yes, mapquest is free but after the third time they misrouted me I decided not to use those directions if possible...We just got a Mio and Zak is having a great time with it!

Wow, tobogganing, that brings back memories! I think my parents still have my toboggan in their attic... Zak & Holly, just 30 miles south, on the south side of the >Turnpike, is the Strongsville Chalet in the Metroparks, for >tobogganing, and Inventure Place in Akron is an awesome mix...

Love the piece! I too am leaving my good, steady office job and paycheck for the life on the road. I already put away all my 'nice' office type clothing. I've always beena jeans and t-shirt kinda girl anyway!

I have been trying to change mine too, its supposed to be the pup, but I don't think it is sticking...

Yay, CDL time! I am taking my permit test on Tuesday...

I enjoy playing games from Realarcade. You can download the first hour as a trial for free and with membership you get a free game every month. Some of the games are mindless but a lot of them are fun! I spent so many hours on JewelQuest and Virtual Villagers!
