DATELINE: ROMULUS, MI, 10:45 a.m. EDT
Welcome back from the holiday weekend. I'm back in my truck--have been now for 4-3/4 hours. (Thank you, Mrs. Reluctant Trucker for the ride back here.) I got back in the truck just after 6:00 a.m., then waited 3 hours for my load assignment to come in. Fortunately I had a new book to read during the wait. Anyway, I'm still sitting here instead of driving to my pickup because that isn't 'til 5:00 tonight in NW OH, about a 2-hour (or less) drive from here. So I'm waiting for a more reasonable time to head out, which will likely be when I finish up this posting so I can drive to a truck stop for some lunch.
The load I'll be picking up this afternoon is headed for eastern TN, just a ways south of Knoxville, and due tomorrow afternoon at 4:00. I 'spect I'll spend tonight at our Vandalia, OH terminal, then make the bulk of the drive to the delivery tomorrow.
So that's where things stand right now. I was all ready to get rolling good and early this morning, then they make me wait. GRRRRR! That's not good for my paychecks, don'tcha' know? Anyway, I may or may not report tonight when I get to Vandalia; I may be a bit weary by then. But I'll be sure to post an update tomorrow night, when I'll be headed somewhere else with another load. Thanks for your support and comments, and keep on truckin'.
