This morning started in on making some sense out of all this stuff in the truck.  Made great headway.  I can walk across the floor and get into the bathroom now.  That a major accomplishment!!  Installed a temporary amber beacon on the front so I will be legal totin' the big stuff.  Found my camera.  Here is my load.

My inaugural trip.

Yesterday morning started at 7 am at the Caterpillar dealer in Garner, North Carolina.  I traded in my Peterbilt for a new (to me) 2007 Kenworth W900 with an ARI Legacy Sleeper.  See their web site for more info on ARI     http://www.legacysleepers.com      The truck is in great condition and is absolutely perfect for me.  It even has a shower and toilet!

Started working on swapping over my stuff to the new truck right away.  Lots of things to move.  To make a very long day short, finished at 9:30 pm then drove an hour up to the Petro truck stop in Mebane, NC for the night.  I was totally exhausted!!  There is stuff in bags all over inside the truck.

Today, I drove over to Winston-Salem, NC and loaded an axle assembly for a Caterpillar 785C Dump Truck.  It is going to the Port of Baltimore.  Sorry I don't have photos.  Because everything in the truck is in bags all over the place, I have no idea where my camera is.  Got on the road and drove up to the TA Truck Stop in Jessup, Maryland for the rest of the weekend.  Going to bed.  Tomorrow the fun of putting all this stuff away.

Still nothing.  Went to the SafeLite Auto Glass web site and punched in all the info on replacing my windshield.  Much to my pleasant surprise they were here in less than 2 hours replacing my windshield.  Couldn't believe how fast they were!  So now I have a new windshield.  

Something really great coming in a few days, stay tuned!!

Woke up this morning and the rain that started yesterday had turned to snow.  Fortunately it was a very wet snow and was melting as soon as it hit anything.  It is more like chunky rain. Went over to Huntington, WV this morning and delivered.  After that went to the TA truck stop in Greensboro, NC to wait for my next load. On the way, had a rock break my windshield.  Its always something!!
