    Well hubby was shopping for a new laptop so we had to shop Walmart. We are at the Columbia J, in the truck lot. Normally we would park in the RV area (unless it's marked no trucks or they kick us out) but their front lot is so small I decided to leave it to the RV's. And lordy it's HOT down...

    An Expedite Upset in the Making?

    I've been told both ways.. that E1 DOES go into Canada, and that they do not. I guess the only way to truthfully answer the question is to call them and ask. As for E1 being as big as Panther or FedEx, they never claimed to be. But they do offer the same services. And besides.. bigger isn't...

    A few Questions about California

    They take American money, but only if it has Arnold's picture on the front of it.

    Recovery Schmecovery

    I've noticed the same thing. Most of the car haulers I've seen have been less than full, a few with only 2 cars on the trailer. Several of the haulers that I've seen lately were hauling older used cars. One hauler was loaded with damaged vehicles. Every car on it looked like it had been in a...

    We were at the J in Blacksburg, SC yesterday for a while (5th out there) then went to Spartanburg to Walmart after our gps led us all over the countryside looking for one around Gaffney. After a check of trucks in the area, we headed down to Columbia.

    An Expedite Upset in the Making?

    E1 is not so "tiny". They can and do offer and provide services that FedEx and Panther do. From their website.. Yes, I'm an enthusiastic "cheerleader" for Express-1. They are a top rate company and they provide top rate service for their customers. We have always been treated well by the...

    More Home Time?

    When we first started driving, we had to go home sometime between the 1st and 5th of the month every month to make our house payment and pay some other bills that could not be paid online. Since we no longer have those bills we tend to stay out for 6 to 8 weeks at a time and then go home and...

    is our gpd behaving

    Ours (Tom Tom) has been messing up a lot lately. Addresses are off regularly, sometimes by as much as 2.5 miles. Last night while trying to find the local Wal Mart, it led us on a wild goose chase through the countryside and kept telling us to turn on a road that wasn't there. Our gps has...

    We are spending the weekend in a motel about 30 miles from Mobile, AL. We've barely had time to breathe the last 2 weeks and are taking a much needed break for a couple days.

    CDL Test Question?

    About the pre-trip test.. MEMORIZE IT. That's the best advice I can give. Go over it and over it until you can do it without looking at the list. If you forget something while taking the test, they can fail you. While taking the air brake part of the test, one of our friends did not...

    E-1 orientation

    Hubby and I have been with E1 since Oct. 07. They are a great company with lots of friendly, helpful people. Some things that you might want to make sure you have are: lots of black pens - I like the gel kind as they almost always write the first time without having to scribble on something...

    "Could you move your truck so I can park?"

    We've been hit one time. It was only a few months after we had started driving, right before Christmas and a Conway T/T was backing into the spot next to us. He hit the sleeper with the back corner of his trailer and put a nice hole in the side of the sleeper. I thought it was going to tip...

    I'll be the first.....May Locations?

    We delivered a load yesterday to Red River Army Depot in Hooks, TX from VA and will be picking one up in North Little Rock, AR later this morning that is going back to VA. Almost 3,000 miles this week. It's been a GREAT week after last week's dismal 400 miles!

    I'm Bored: part 2.

    Boredom comes and goes for me. I spend a lot of my "sitting" time on my laptop. Between my email, Facebook, the EO forums and my Blog I have a lot to keep me occupied. Sometimes though, such as yesterday, I've done all I can "do" with those things and I'm left sitting and staring at the...

    American Idol

    My vote is for Adam. He's very talented and seemed completely comfortable and competent in every style of music they have had to sing during the competition. He's also very versatile in his look. Danny, while talented in his own right, had some problems with a couple of the styles, like rock...
