I left at 1 AM EDT. The video below was just north of Spartanburg, North Carolina.
Drove to Savannah, Georgia, and delivered the stuff. My next load is tomorrow morning in Brunswick, Georgia. I went to the TA truck stop in Brunswick for the night. 554 miles today.
I left at 3 AM EDT and drove to Lafayette, Indiana. Loaded a Caterpillar engine and two of the three boxes that went with it. They said that the third box was at their other warehouse, which was a couple of miles away. I went there. They spent an hour looking for it. Couldn't find it. They finally figured out that it was back where I loaded the engine and the other two boxes. SO, I went back there, and they put the box on my trailer. This stuff is going to Savannah, Georgia.
I left at 2 AM EDT and drove nonstop to Novi, Michigan, and delivered the excavator. My next load is tomorrow in Lafayette, Indiana. I started off in that direction. Stopped for the night when I ran out of hours at the Petro truck stop in Fremont, Indiana. 538 miles today.
I delivered the track loader first thing this morning. Didn't have another load yet, so I went to the AC&T truck stop in Hagerstown, Maryland, to wait. At about 9:30, I got my next load. I drove to the Port of Baltimore and loaded a Caterpillar 317 Excavator that is going to Novi, Michigan.
Had to wait until 1 PM for the Port people to come back from lunch so I could get my paperwork. They didn't show up until 1:45. Then I left and drove to the TA truck stop in Breezewood, Pennsylvania, for the night.
I left at 2 AM EDT and had a nice, uneventful day on the road. Drove 534 miles to the Flying J truck stop in Winchester, Virginia. I deliver a few blocks from here Monday morning.
This morning I left to go to Brunswick, Georgia, to load. As soon as I got started, the brand new belt they put on started to squeal. So I stopped, opened the hood, and looked to see why it was squealing. Saw that the idle pulley was not spinning. So instead of going to Brunswick, I went back to Kenworth. They took the truck in fairly quickly and fixed the problem. I left there in pretty good time and continued on to Brunswick. Loaded a Caterpillar 963 Track Loader that is going to Clear Brook, Virginia.
My truck was finished late this morning, and I went over and got it. I'll load tomorrow in Brunswick, Georgia.
