Short Work Day, Short Report

DATELINE: PRESCOTT, AR, 10:00 p.m. CDT

Miles Today: 238

Not a lot happenin' today. I had to wait around the West Memphis terminal for my load to arrive. It was scheduled for 2:00 p.m., but I didn't get word it had arrived 'til after 3:00. I hooked up the trailer and hit the road at about 3:45. Four hours later, as the sun was setting, I arrived at the TA here and parked for the night. I'm headed to Marietta, OK, and this town is just short of halfway for this trip. My delivery appointment is at 6:00 tomorrow evening, so I have plenty of time to get there. However, I'm sure I can drop it there early (this will be a drop-and-hook delivery instead of a live unload), so I'll get up and moving early in the morning, 6:00 or 7:00 or so.

This load is a new commodity for me to be hauling...pork rinds. I don't know why it's not classified as a Hazardous Material load. ;-)

Well, I want to get to bed, so I'll wrap this up now. Thanks for taking a look, and keep on truckin'.
