At 9 am I left the Daily yard and went into Houston to load. It was tricky getting in there. It was a huge challenge once I got there. Had to go in and turn around in order to load. With the trailer stretched all the way out made that maneuvering quite a sight to see. I am 103 feet long. But I did it without hitting anything and they loaded the thing on the trailer.
Getting back out of there was even more fun. Left turns going in. Right turns going back out. Rounded two corners missing a telephone pole by only centimeters. I attract a lot of attention doing that. I think they want to see me take out the pole!! Made it back to the Interstate and the driving was much easier. Stopped for the night at a convenience store with a few truck parking places in Atlanta, Texas. Tomorrow morning I'll get to Arkansas where I'll pick up my pilot escort car. That too will make things a lot easier for me. Having someone to block traffic while I make those tight maneuvers is a huge help.
