As soon as my 10 hours was up I was checked out of the hotel and in the truck ready to go.  I left at 2 am.  Stopped in Raphine, Virginia and fueled and washed the truck.  Then continued on to Carlisle, PA to the "home office" and dropped the trailer in the yard and parked the truck.  My truck was sitting there waiting for me.  Everything had been fixed.  Took an hour putting everything away and making it "livable" again.  Glad to be back in my truck.  Now it is time to spend the rest of the day  watching SEC football!!!!  GO GATORS!!!!!!


Capacity 91,916

After the Gators comes the Alabama at LSU game.  That is the game of the season so far!!!  Can't wait for that one.  I love SEC football!!!!!

Got up at 2:20 this morning and was on the road by 2:45.  Drove to Enterprise Car Rental in Athens, Georgia and dropped off my rental.  The guy that I was meeting to pick up his truck, met me at Enterprise and brought me to his house where the truck was parked.  He had to leave Daily because of a back injury.  Couldn't drive anymore.   


The truck was in really good shape.  It was new, only 29.000 miles on it.   I left there and got started on my way back to Carlisle.  Stopped  little earlier than I had planned because of road construction traffic messes.  Stopped at the Flying J truck stop in Mt. Airy, North Carolina.  The Best Western hotel is right next to the truck stop.  Checked in there.  Going to sleep early so I can get another early start tomorrow.  Want to get to Carlisle before all the good football games start.  Gators play Vanderbilt at noon. But the game of the day will be LSU (Louisiana State University) at Alabama.  Both teams are 8-0.  It is going to be fun!!  Starts at 3:30.  I think LSU has a really good chance at beating Alabama.

My truck is still at Kenworth but I have something else to do.  I'm going down to Georgia to recover a truck and trailer from a driver's house.  Have no idea why I'm picking it up, but I really don't care.  At least I'm making money.  I drove my rental car down to the Hampton Inn in Hillsville, Virginia for the night.

Had my truck at the shop first thing this morning.  They got started on it right away.  I went to Enterprise and rented a car.  While they worked on my truck I did 6 loads of laundry.  When I finished that I went and got my DOT physical done.  Then I returned to Daily to see how my truck was doing.  They finished did what they could do at the Daily shop.  The rest had to be done at Kenworth.  We took it over to Kenworth first thing after lunch.  Have no idea how long it will be there.  After that I picked up my prescriptions at Wal-Mart and returned to my hotel room for the night.

We left this morning at 8:45 and drove the rest of the way to Hummelstown, PA.  Only one low wire to go around and a low traffic light to go around on the way.  Then a very, very tight left turn.  Made it without any difficulty.  Delivered the generator after the crane got set up.  Then drove back to the "home office" in Carlisle, PA.   Swapped out all my stuff into a different trailer.  My next load is in Shady Grove, PA, but before I go get that I have to have some work done on my truck.  I checked into a hotel for a couple days.  They will start on my truck first thing in the morning.
