Oh yes, I've seen a lot of interesting things out here. I've been driving for almost 12 years, and owned my own trucks for about half of that. I stay out generally about six to eight weeks at a time, and go home for a few days, or a week. I've got my little miniature Dacshund in the truck with me to navigate.
I've seen the worst accidents, met the strangest people, and been to some really weird places. Living on the road is not always fun though. Lotta vagrants, scheisters, and con-artists out here. Everything from truck stop hookers, to truck stop mechanics. There's a lot of bad element.
I run 48 states, Canada, as well as Mexico. If I'm not hauling a load, I'm either going to, or coming from a meeting with a new, or current client. I just scored a really huge account, out of El-Paso, Texas last week, for weekly runs of auto parts from there to Detroit. My trucks, do well, and are all over the country right now. I'm in the vicinity of Mobile, Alabama right now. i've got a load to deliver in the morning which I picked up the morning before yesterday, in Salt Lake City, Utah. 2050 miles away.
This will be a light week however. By the time saturday night comes. I'll only have run 4000 miles. I'm not sure exactly where to yet, but most likely, back the way I came, or even further. Looking at a load now w/two stops on it. If I get it I'm running from here, to Spokane,Wa. and from there to Seattle,Wa. Anyways This is why I want my guide book for B.K.
I have dozens of others, for truck washes, fuel stops, hotels, truck stops. Only thing missing is fast food stops, Particularly B.K. I don't care much about the rest of them. Will do the blackberry thing and try that. I'm tired of this happening. I haven't eaten a thing since last night in Denver,Colorado at a truck stop. Guess I'll have to have some nasty Domino's delivered to the truck, or something.
