Left this morning a half hour after sunrise.  Drove over to Austell and delivered the excavator.  Went back to the TA truck stop in Jackson for the night.  My truck ran just fine but now it was the trailer's turn.  Had an air leak fixed and an electrical plug replaced because all my trailer lights went out while on the way to Austell.  




They are all fixed now.  My next load is Monday back at the port in Savannah.  I'll head back there tomorrow morning.

Spent the whole day at Peterbilt getting the truck worked on.  To make a very L-O-N-G story short, It is ready to go again.  I'll deliver the excavator in the morning.

Finally got another load.  A short one.  Went over to the Port in Savannah and loaded a Caterpillar 326FL Excavator that is going over to Austell, GA.  



Left there and drove to the TA in Jackson, GA for the night.  Just as I was pulling off the interstate to go into the truck stop things took a turn for the worse, again!  Several lights and alarms went off.  I pulled straight up to the service bay at the TA and they looked at it.  Tried to fix it, but it didn't work. He called Peterbuilt, which was on the other side of the interstate from there.  They said bring it over.  I locked my trailer and left it at the TA and drove over to Peterbuilt. They were the closest that could work on Caterpillar engines.  Got checked in there and spent the night in their parking lot.  Their engine mechanic will be in in the morning.  The saga continues!!!!!

Left the truck stop in Atlanta this morning a half hour after sunrise and drove down to the Port in Savannah, GA and delivered the wheel loader.  I shot a video from the driver's seat of unloading it. But I just remembered that I was in the port so I can not publish the video.  Homeland Security rules.  Oh well, it came out pretty good too.  I'll try again in a place that I can video. Don't have another load yet so I went over to the TA truck stop in Richmond Hill, GA to wait.
