at the Walmart...not the Detroiter...

With all the really nice places in that area you could wait for a load you go to a Walmart?

You could be down by the water, enjoying the breezes, watching the boats. You could be taking a walk on the dikes out at Pointe Mouillie, there are 8 miles of dikes to walk out there. You could see ducks and deer and all other kinds of neat stuff. Walmart? I need to edumakate you about that area one day!

Won't work this time, I used the correct spelling for "dike" in this case.

Don't need haters...let's be realistic & honest...Lots of #'s be thrown around...for a week here..week there..."even the sun shines on a dog's lazy azz once and awhile" as grandpa would say..you sound like a hell of a guy ..good plans lots of experience. ..but people might judge these few postings on a career move.. and #'s they see ..we all know this buiss is is a roller-coaster ride...How good does CRE do at moving in the SLOW SLOW times when the big guys gobble up all the bid freight to keep there 200+ vans moving??

Yea, alone with 2012-Waddy, 2020-Louisville, and 274-Shelbyville. 1 S/T-Waddy, on a reset and close to 4 T/T on their way here. Had offers but dispatch couldn't set the hook.

I've seen them standing talking with each other, I've seen them on bikes, But, I've never seen 8 miles of them. Much less walk on them...

Some seem to have a problem with word usage today.

Going to head north on I-35 to the TX/OK state line and try my luck at the Winstar World Casino. Getting too hot to sit and I only run the ac/gen when trying to sleep.

Just remember, a 50 MPH transit average is widely accepted for vans on direct loads. Leave some buffer and nap enough to arrive safely. You're needed alive!!
