Ahhhh to sit for 12 hours.

Well it finally happened. I pulled into a Pilot in Dunnigan Ca and had 2 minutes left on my 70. Craig actually still had a whole 28 minutes. We start getting hours back at midnight and we will be dropping this load at the Colton terminal and picking another one up in Chino and heading to Illinois. Not use to running out of hours but when you run hard it will eventually happen. This is the only day we couldn’t drive much. Tonight we both get 10+ hours back. We stopped and had dinner, took showers and watched a movie. Felt like heaven. Now it is super foggy out and Craig is not looking forward to the drive. Hoping the grapevine will be clear.

    Hey I left a msg for you on another trucker site, anyway I made up my mind to come to USX, and hope to cross paths with you guy someday.

    Hi Guys! That rest was good and probably timely. I feel for Craig on the trip out of there. I used to live in the San Joaquin Valley and that tuly fog is nasty. He probably had it all the way past Bakersfield. Sometimes it’s right on the ground, so in a semi you might be able to see over it. I hope. At least you’re out of the snow for a day or so. Take care and keep us posted.

    Thank you both for the blogs. I’m considering this as a career change but if I don’t the information and insight into trucking that you provide has been educational as well as entertaining. Keep up the good work or maybe the phrase ” Keep on Trucking ” would be more appropriate.
