 This morning I went to Norman, Oklahoma, for my next load.  After looking at it and talking with the guys there, we realized that I had a trailer that would not work for this load.  I talked with my dispatcher and went back to the Daily yard and found a trailer that would work.  I dropped my trailer and attached to that trailer.  Then I went back to Norman, OK.  Backed inside the building and loaded 6 statues.

They are going to the First Americans Museum in Oklahoma City, OK.  I left and drove to the museum.  When I got there, I parked around back for the night.  

The crane is scheduled to be here at about 7 AM CST tomorrow morning.

 When my 10 hours were up, I left and drove to the Daily terminal in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  Stopped and got the truck washed along the way.  I'll be here until Monday morning.  Have an interesting load in Norman, OK.

 I left at about midnight.  Drove to Amarillo, Texas, and delivered the wheel loader.  From there, I went over to "The Big Texan" and had a great meal.  16 oz bone-in rib eye steak, salad, baked potato, and 3 dinner rolls.  Ate it all!!!

There was a guy there just getting started on the 72oz challenge.  

Don't know if he made it.  When I left, he was still going at it.

 Went over a little early for my 1 PM EST loading appointment and loaded a Komatsu WA270 wheel loader that is going to Amarillo, Texas.

Left there but didn't go very far.  Stopped at the Love's truck stop in Piedmont, South Carolina for my ten hours.

Want to see how bad truck stops screw drivers?  I saw this in the ice cream case here at the Love's...

This is how much you can get the same thing at Walmart...

 This morning I drove the rest of the way to McDonough, Georgia, and delivered the compactor.  My next load is in Newberry, South Carolina.  I have a 1 PM EST loading appointment for tomorrow.  I drove to the Love's truck stop that is on the other side of the Interstate from where I load tomorrow in Newberry.
