Left Jackson very early this morning and drove over to Shorter, Alabama to the Love's truck stop for the rest of the weekend.  I'm about an hour from where I load on Monday.  Now it is time to settle in for an afternoon of SEC Football!!!

Gators play LSU today.  It will be a miracle if they can win this one!  LSU is doing real good this year.

I love this time of year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went back to the Caterpillar dealer first thing this morning to wait for the tire guy to arrive.  Much to my surprise, they called another company that could get there much sooner. Once he put the tires on it I was able to unload it.  The heat really got to me today.  It is still in the 90's here.  After I left there I went o the Petro in Jackson, MS and took a long shower.  That helped.  Then had lunch and went to bed and slept all afternoon.  That really helped!!  Feel a lot better now.  Tomorrow I'll head back toward Lagrange, GA for my next load.

Left LaGrange, Georgia a half hour after sunrise.  Drove to the Caterpillar dealer in Bogue Chitto, Mississippi.  Can't unload until tomorrow afternoon when the tire guy gets there.  I dropped my trailer there and went to a truck stop in Brookhaven, MS to wait.

Left this morning and drove the rest of the way to LaGrange, Georgia to the Caterpillar plant.  Loaded a Caterpillar 535D Skidder that is going to Bogue Chitto, Mississippi.  

Didn't have any of my permits yet so I went to a truck stop a few miles away to wait.  All of them came in this afternoon but it was too late to go anywhere.  I stayed there for the night.

Back to work today.  Next load is up in LaGrange, Georgia.  I headed that way.  Stopped for the night at the Pilot truck stop in Tifton, Georgia.
