Rain, snow and sleet by Cindy

Posted on Jan 18, 2005 - 6:10am by Wayne in Uncategorized

We are currently in Seattle, WA and looking to go south. The mountains were great and I even have some pictures of Wayne putting chains on the truck. In fact the driver ahead of us was also putting his chains on while posing at the same time. Wayne and I had a good laugh as we pulled up BEHIND this driver. Today we will drop all three loads we picked up from Phoenix and Albuquerque and be ready for a new trip. I will put my two cents in to our travel agent (dispatcher) about how I love the sun and warm weather they tend to have more of in the South. I am requesting an Orlando trip for Valentines Day to visit with friends and family, hope cupid is listening.

Wayne’s update: Here’s crack and no crack while putting chains on. And notice who is inside taking pictures and who’s outside throwing chains on.

Adventure vs. Lifestyle by Cindy

As we adventure to the East (Maryland and New Jersey) we find snow, sleet and ice. So what were we looking for in the middle of winter you say? My reply would be April. We still see lots of beauty in the winter its just not as

Headed to Cheyenne by wayne

From Garland, TX just outside Dallas we're going to Cheyenne, WY. Mainly because of a load that's going from Denver to Boston. That load was cancelled and now we'll wait for something else. I should know better than to depend on something dispatch says. Cindy is doing real well. She

Texas Weather

The local news here in Dallas is predicting a possible big ice storm. Dirt trucks are being loaded and staged at midnight in preparation of freezing rain. Looking at the weather maps, there is a lot of rain and it is supposed to get below freezing. It's probably a good

Work Week

I haven't really quit Bohamian yet, they gave me a short trip from near where I was in PA to Albany, NY. Paid pretty well for general freight, the short hauls usually do. So I'm not too far away and it breaks up the long week and it's a little

Home at Last

I made if home for Christmas after one of the worst drives I've had in a long time. I was always trying to drive ahead of some weather system or just keep driving through it. I missed a big snow storm in the Northeast and I drove as fast as

Sunshine at Last!

Finally out of the snow and extreme cold. I thought I was out of the snow last night, but I woke up this morning with snow on the windshield in West Virginia. After about 20 minutes of driving I came on to a wreck that had both directions shut down
