Good sunny morning from the Pilot Truck Stop in Missoula, Montana! Yuppers, I finally got an awesome load from Seattle to Detroit! We are talking about 2500 miles of beautiful northern country that I have never seen before so I will be milking those extra three hours a day to enjoy the full 14 hours that this truck can move in.
It has been a great ride so far with a load weighing less than 30,000 pounds so the mountain passes are a breeze! Gonja is still trying to figure out what to do with his time in the truck but he sure knows what to do with his time out of the truck! We will be taking a 1.5 hour lunch today so we can run a bit and shake the dust off our ole bones.
Enjoy your breakfast and some coffee. We will be heading out in 30 minutes!
My first snow drive!
Good evening from Mile City, Montana! We did not make it all the way across the state before our hours ran out. Gonja is feeling good after that nice run for lunch and a nap. He is finally relaxed enough to enjoy his rawhide. He is learning that when we get out of the truck, he better do his duty or wait! As long as I throw in a little play time, he seems to be adjusting well. Need to grab some toys the next time I hit Wal-Mart.
My food supplies are holding well but I did pack for nearly three weeks. The frozen food is still frozen and the rest is sweet and cold. I had chicken breast with steamed cauliflower and broccoli topped with cheese; all made from the contents of my cooler and the truck stop microwave was my lil oven. This round of road trip is so much more organized and efficient with the bonus of my beloved lab with me. I may be poor but at the moment, quite blessed. Sweet dreams truckers!
We love our walks :)
Wonder what is wrapped in there!
Dinner companions........they let me do all the talking!
The flooding Clark River
Told the company my bumper needed repair, they told me they would need to pull my load..........I fixed it, MONTANA style!
