 This morning I drove to the Port in Brunswick, Georgia, and loaded a Caterpillar 920 Excavator that is going to Austell, Georgia.

I left there and drove to Austell and delivered the excavator.  From there, I drove a couple of miles to the Petro truck stop in Atlanta for the night.  My back hurts tonight.  Feels good to lie down!!!

 This time, I caught a bad trailer tire before it exploded.

I spent another 3 or 4 hours getting two more trailer tires put on.  When I left, I drove to the Pilot truck stop in Tifton, Georgia for the night.

 Went over to Caterpillar in North Little Rock, Arkansas, this morning and loaded a Caterpillar 140 Motor Grader that is going to Ocala, Florida.

Left there in pretty good time.  In Alabama, another trailer tire blew up.  I stopped at the next truck stop, which was in Nauvoo, Alabama.

Road service came out and replaced the tire.

When he finished, I stayed there for the night.
