Got one from Columbus Ind. to Rock Hill SC...so much for north or west...I swear they watch these boards...*L*

You know better than this. You have to do a head fake kind of thing.

Woo-hoo. First sprinter load this year. Actually I exaggerate, I think it's my second sprinter load. Dexter, MO to Chattanooga, then Bessemer, AL to Greenwood, MS. Arrived just in time to have a nice chat with the close up crew who had already clocked out and locked the gate. Darn, thought I might be able to deliver twelve hours early.

Actually I unloaded in El Paso just over a week ago from a mini, then they sent me an em to LA since freight suddenly died out in El Paso because of the gang killings on the other side. So I got to LA sat for two days and nothing. Stopped in Las Vegas to check it out on the way out and I got as far as Tucumcari, NM and Panther hit me with a load going back down to El Paso. Apparently another driver had broken down with a bad alternator (thus was how I met Dancorn) and they really needed my help. I told them 500$ flat. And here I am back in good ol' El Paso. I feel like eating salsa and chips LOL I actually got 400$ for the load and a 100$ em to dallas so I will try my luck there after my clothes get done. Where has all the freight gone?!

Hey Falligator... Saturday I delivered mining supplies in Carlsbad,NM at 8am, then within an hour dashed over to El Paso for a load headed to Louisville, KY. El Paso has always been good to me.

We finish up our TVAL testing (round two) about noon today. Headed for the house :( to get some work done. We have lights going out. Can't afford problems with DOT. We had really wanted to be back in service by now. A lost week. :( Maybe the weather will hold and I can get my AirTabs on! That would salvage something then.

West Memphis, Arkansas at the Petro.
Had the double up BBQ ribs last night. Whoever picked the BBQ sauce most have worked in a hospital or prison. Lesson 101 on how to ruin good ribs. Pour horrible BBQ sauce all over them.
I wish I had a bottle of Baby Ray's with me.

TJP, will the safety dept. let you go right back in service, or will you have to get another inspection? Don't let the little stuff hold you back.

You sure are having a hard time getting that Sprinter fixed.
Are you going to get a cattle guard for it when you get it back?

I could not stand to be off that long, guess my Sprinter days will never happen, but I do like the cargo max designs.
