Stuck in North Carolina. Could think of worse places to be stuck this time of year.

oklahoma city wasn't so bad either, but I'm not there anymore. Nashville has some dry pavement under my van.

Dry pavement is a good thing. All in all I guess we are pretty lucky. Considering it is the end of January it has been a far gentler winter than last year. Now on the flip side big storms can be beneficial to our industry with the disruptions they cause in the supply chain.

Everything functioning well in the wash bay? Been running hard lately and I haven't really been out there much. If it needs anything let me know and I will get it taken care of.

I couldn't get soap to come out. It might have been me not knowing how to use it properly as this was the first time I've washed it there. Water, pressure and scrub brush got it pretty clean.

Well another day and another airplane. Service call in on the wash bay. It is functional but pressure washer is not drawing soap in properly. Looks like the NE didn't get it as bad as they predicted. What a job being a weatherman. It is like predicting freight volumes.

Re: January Locations & Witty Repartee

In the yard. New signage installed and looks good. Now I need a nice long run to try out my new percentage.

Re: January Locations & Witty Repartee

Unloaded yesterday in Flint. (100 miles from home) Did a 19 and was 15 of 15 so headed home.

Got home and was 1 of 1.

No calls today but this is part of the problem/blessing of living in a dead zone. The real question is head back south and get back into the freight, or hang at home and maybe catch the Super Bowl. hmmmm decisions decisions.

Remember never trust 19 around the SE Michigan area. The local trucks and Canadian trucks can completely throw off the numbers.
