    A very belated "Thank You"...

    To all who offered advice and assistance when I came on with Load 1. It turned out not to be the right fit for me, so I took the truck back to FedEx. The transition from driver to owner, last Oct., and the time lost changing companies, set me back some, and I never really gained ground while...
