Winter, is almost over, thank goodness. Everything is, and has been going well since my last post. Last week my normal stops did not have any deliveries so I had to run a few drop and hooks. I had not done what I call, "normal truck driving stuff", since me T.E. time. I pulled several very heavy loads I thought my truck was going to die it was not use to that. Speaking about weights when I was leaving my pick up point they weighed my truck and asked if I was ok with the weights. I had to think about it, I know the g.v.w can not be more than 80,000 lbs. But had to pause a few seconds to remember my axle weights. When I got to the drop off area and had to pick up an empty, I had forgotten what a pain in the rear trailer searches are. I have become so spoiled doing what I do. I am glad I got to do something different for a change. It was good for me to do that stuff to remind me that I am very lucky and thankful for what I do on a daily and weekly basis.
