Well the picture below should clue ya in to the title of my blog. I got up, did my pretrip, kicked all the snow off my rig that I could and found a bad tail light and leaking trailer brakes.
So, once again my clock has started but I haven't. Yesterday I lost 4 hours because of the shipper and probably an hour worth of driving because of how crappy the roads were.
Now, I have 1961 miles and three days to complete them. Possible? Yes. In time for payroll? Not so sure.
Positive note is, I'll have approximately 20+ hours to get the load down to TX out of CA. I also have time to take a restart on the load. So, I'll make it to CA, roll out the rest of my hours and sit for a day in a warmer locale. Then roll into TX with almost an entire week's worth of hours left and hopefully a good portion of the pay period left.
I'm going to beat mother nature and I will make it to CA. It's been awhile since I've fought her up here on 80 heading West in the winter but I still remember my tricks. Those of you who are reading this that are concerned I'll try pushin on when I shouldn't need not worry. I have a family to make it home to and the powdered cheese in this trailer is FAR less important than seein them again.
Ive also attached a few other pictures, none of which were taken while driving.
