I’d like to get home someday

Well, I figured that this would happen after the holidays, what with the shippers holding their breath, waiting to see what “The One” is going to do when he takes office.  Turns out the with all the once a year trucks out here, Christmas tree trucks are out here looking for trips back to the north-west.  That makes for a bunch of extra trucks, after what seems to be a small amount of freight headed that way.

This trip has been quite the trip around the country: Portland/Rhode Island/New Jersey/Georgia/Ohio/Alabama/Mississippi/Ohio/Alabama.  Now we’re near Birmingham Alabama, and have a load to pick up tomorrow that goes to Lansing Michigan.  Hopefully from there, something headed to the Northwest.

Kind of have the feeling, that for the first of the next year, I’m just going to have to chase freight. Just go city to city wherever the best paying freight is going. If I have to I can get by on very little while on the road, so I’ll make it work, one way or another.

But hey, “It’s a livin”
