Good evening from Savannah, GA, at the Wal-Mart/Home Depot back parking lot. It has been a long day but a good day as I am loaded and driving my brand new 2012 Freightliner. We got a late start from the terminal and did a 240 mile run to Douglas, GA and the pick up here. As I was out of minutes, I didn’t even sign in that I picked up the load. I just grabbed it and headed here before I was forced to park on the street! I will log it in the morning as it will run me way over what I have done already and I have all ready gotten in trouble with minor log violations while at the terminal that required computer testing……..augh!
I have named the truck “Popeye” because of the hood mirrors. While parked at the terminal yesterday, so idiot hit my driver side hood mirror and broke it. The shop did have the mirror assemblies in stock but without the back chrome that is factory installed. So, I have one chrome and one solid black and we have a name!
Gonja is now legal to go anywhere I go and the company gets to keep more of my hard earned money because of it. He does like the new truck as he has more floor space but his seat is a tad smaller and he can’t sleep in it. Which as far as I am concern, is great as it keeps him awake so he sleeps better at night.
Marcus and Matthew, my two new friends that I met in Springfield are on the road in their new trucks and going to the same next two destinations so they still get to pal around some more. Nice guys and great company. Marcus is so big, I considered him my body guard! Take care guys and see you soon!
Well everyone, time to sleep in my truck for the first time…………sweet dreams!
