Friday, June 1, 2018

Left Atlanta a half hour after sunrise this morning.  Had no traffic issues in or leaving Atlanta.  Everything was going very well until I got to about mile marker 106 on I-16.  Then things came to an abrupt halt.  There was a very bad car crash just past exit 111 and the Interstate was shut down.  They were diverting everyone off at exit 111.  When I got there I pulled into the truck stop at that exit to wait it out.  Altogether it took about an hour for them to re-open the Interstate. Once open again, I was back moving.    South of Savannah on I-95 came up on round two of bumper to bumper traffic.  Another wreck!!   Fortunately it was not as bad as the other one.  It took a while to get through it, but I finally did.  When I got to the Georgia / Florida state line I picked up my pilot escort car.  He was with me the rest of the way to the Port.  I just barely made it there in time to deliver today.  Delivered the dump truck.  Then went to the Daily yard in Jacksonville.  Will be here until Sunday.
