Left Seville and drove up to Green Cove Springs and delivered the pilings.  My next load was in Valdosta, GA.  Drove over there and picked it up.  It is a 20 foot container full of work tools from a job site at a lumber processing yard.  It is a bit top heavy and makes the truck a little tipsy.  It is going to Dublin, GA but we are storing it at our yard in Seville until Tuesday. 

Drove back to Seville, Fl where I will be until very early Tuesday morning.

Drove up to Seville, FL for the night.

Left Florence, KY this morning and had a great day on the road.  Passed a real good friend on I-75 between Atlanta and Macon.  He was going north and I was going south.  We flashed headlights at each other and waved as we passed.  That was fun!! Finished the day at the TA truck stop at exit 2 in Lake Park, Georgia after driving 702 miles today.

Got unloaded this morning in Elkhart, IN.  After that went to Thermo King in Elkhart and had my APU worked on.  The alternator finally went out.  Replaced it and the belt and $540 later I was on my way to pick up my next load.  That was up in Union City, Michigan.  These things are used at construction sites where they are digging a hole.  They make a box with these things and put it in the hole to keep the dirt from falling in on the workers.  They are used a lot when putting in underground pipe lines ie: storm drains.

They are going to Pompano Beach, Florida.  Drove down to the TA truck stop in Florence, KY for the night.  That is just south of Cincinatti.

I was one of the last to load down in Vance, Alabama and I beat everyone else up to Tawas, Michigan!!  First in line to unload (again) this morning.  I love it when I can do that!!  After I got empty there I drove down to Marlette, Michigan. That is right in the middle of Michigan's "thumb".  Picked up a load of racks going down to Elkhart, Indiana. 

Drove to the place I'm delivering to in Elkhart.  Spent the night in their parking lot.  I will be first in line again to get unloaded first thing in the morning.
