While the mechanic worked on my trailer I settled in for another afternoon of SEC Football!!  I really love this time of year!!!!!!!!!!

 The Gators did good today too.

Next week could be a different story.  Next few games don't look too good for them.  Oh well, enjoy this win.  It may be the last for a while.

Tomorrow will be a little more work on the trailer.  Hopefully it will be all better.

This morning drove to the Port of Jacksonville in Blount Island, Florida.  Delivered the dump truck.  Then went to the Daily terminal in Jacksonville to have our mechanic fix my trailer.

Left real early this morning. Another good day on the road.  Lost about 30 minutes in bumper to bumper traffic in Atlanta because of a wreck.  Other than that, no other problems.  Stopped for the night at the Flying J truck stop in Brunswick, Georgia when I ran out of hours.

As soon as it was legal for me to drive I left the Daily terminal in Bettendorf, Iowa and drove to the Flying J truck stop in Oak Grove, Kentucky. Good day on the road, no problems.

My trailer got fixed late this afternoon.  Well, fixed enough to get back to Jacksonville.  Will need more work there.  I went back over to the Bettendorf terminal and hooked back to my trailer.  I'll leave first thing in the morning.

My next load came in late this morning.  It was up i Davenport, Iowa.  I left the TA and drove up there and loaded a John Deere 310E Articulating Dump Truck that is going to Jacksonville, Florida.  Got the thing on but the trailer broke and had difficulty getting it reconnected.  Had the mechanic come out from the Bettendorf terminal.  He saw the problem but was not able to fix it there.  Was able to get it reconnected enough to get back to the terminal.  So I secured the truck to the trailer and drove over to the Bettendorf terminal.

I got there at quitting time so I dropped the trailer there.  He will start on it in the morning.  I drove out to the Iowa 80 truck stop for the night.

Last night didn't go as well as hoped.
