Got on the road at sun up.  Great day to be on the road, the weather was perfect.  In Texas a Swift truck in front of me in the right lane had a trailer tire explode.  I got it on video but it is (again) difficult to see.  The explosion was loud enough for me to hear in my truck.

Stopped for the weekend at the TA Truck Stop in Baytown, Texas.  Deliver Monday morning just down the road from here.

Yesterday was another exhausting day!  Glad it is over.  Today I went over to the other side of Jacksonville and loaded a Grove 540 Crane that is going to Baytown, Texas.

Got on the road and drove out to the TA truck stop west of Mobile, Alabama for the night. My gross weight is 109,420 pounds.  This truck pulls that weight so much better than the other one did.  Drove through that cold front.  Lots of heavy rain and a lot of wind!  Glad I was heavy.

Got on the road just before sun up and drove in to the Port of Miami.  All the cruise ships were gone.  Lots of bumper to bumper traffic this morning.  After  delivering drove back  to the Daily yard in Jacksonville.  Next load is Thursday in Jax.

Left Jacksonville this afternoon and drove down to the TA truck stop in Vero Beach for the night. Deliver in Miami tomorrow.

Took a few more photos of my truck for you.  Hope you like them as much as I do.

Here is the lettering that was done up in Carlisle.
