Got my first snowfall for the season today. My truck was finished this morning. Checked out of the hotel and went to the Daily yard. I took a truck that had to go to International in Harrisburg and dropped it off. Then got my truck and brought it back to Carlisle. Then got another step deck trailer and went to JLG in Shippensburg and loaded a JLG Boomlift 860SJ that is going to Ocala, Florida.
This morning I drove the rest of the way to Taylor, PA, and delivered the crane stuff. From there I drove to the "home office" in Carlisle, PA. After being dragged around in the mud it knocked the front end way out of alignment. It was so bad that it really chewed up my steer tires. See the steel cords starting to protrude?
This morning I drove to the Petro truck stop in Scranton, PA. I'll deliver about 6 miles from here tomorrow.
I left at 9 PM EST last night. No problems on the road. Drove 596 miles to the Flying J truck stop in Lamar, Pennsylvania. Now it's time to get some sleep and then have an afternoon of good old SEC college football!!! GO GATORS!!!
Last night I left at about 8 PM CST. Got the truck wash along the way. Boy!!! Did it need it!!!! Drove 502 miles to the Petro truck stop in Brazil, Indiana for my 10 hours.
This morning the heavy machinery came and cleared as much of the mud as possible and made a better road in and out. Then the crane came in and got set up. I was moved out of the way to the other side of the job site. There were four other trucks lined up on the hardtop road plus a 12-axle truck.
I left there and went a few miles down the road to a convenience store with some truck parking. I'll wait a few hours and then head out. All this stuff is going to Taylor, Pennsylvania.
