 This morning, I went over to the Port of Jacksonville and loaded a Caterpillar D4 Dozer with a blade.

I left there and drove down to Ocala, Florida, and delivered it.  Then I went back to the Jacksonville terminal for the night.

 I left at about 2 AM EDT and drove to Ocala, Florida, and delivered the wheel loader.  From there, I drove to the Daily terminal in Jacksonville, stopping to get the truck washed along the way.  509 miles today.

 I went over to Simpsonville, South Carolina, first thing this morning and delivered the excavator.  Then I drove the five-hour drive over to Clayton, North Carolina, and loaded a Caterpillar 938 Wheel Loader that is going to Ocala, Florida.

Left there and drove to the Petro truck stop in Florence, South Carolina, for the night.

 I left Baltimore at 4 AM EDT.  There was a crash on the Baltimore Beltway that shut down the interstate.  That cost me about a half hour.  The rest of the day was uneventful, except for this idiot...

Drove 569 miles to the TA truck stop in Duncan, South Carolina. That is just west of Spartanburg.  I'll be here until Monday morning.

 I left at 11 PM EDT last night.  Drove all night and arrived at the Port of Baltimore before they opened.  When they opened, I loaded a Caterpillar 320 Excavator that is going to Simpsonville, South Carolina.

I didn't have a whole lot of hours left for today, so I went over to the TA truck stop in Baltimore for the rest of today and tonight.  

I forgot to post this from the other day.  I almost got another one.  This time I was loaded and going uphill, so I was going a lot slower and had more time to move over a bit.

 I left at 1 AM EDT today.  Scaled before I left.  Found out I was over 8000 pounds overweight. 

 I left anyway.  Drove the rest of the night.  Got a bit of a scare at the Connecticut weigh station; it was open.  Fortunately, I made it through without getting stopped.  All the rest of the weigh stations along the route were closed.  Delivered the material handler in Milford, Massachusetts.  From there, I went to the TA truck stop in Willington, Connecticut, for the night.  535 miles today.

 I left at 1 AM EDT and drove the rest of the way to Girard, OH. Delivered the excavator. Then drove back to the Port of Baltimore and loaded a Caterpillar. MH3022 Material Handler that is going up to Milford, Massachusetts. 

From there, I went over to the TA truck stop in Baltimore.  Had less than half an hour left on my clock for today.  610 miles today.  I'm very tired, and my back really hurts.  Hard to walk any distance.
