Not TAH

TAH is next Friday, Ron...

On our way to Minooka, IL I called the consignee and asked them if we could deliver early. They checked the assignment and determined it was "hot" and they would take it anytime. So we bopped into their place at about 1800 - 500 miles. Not a bad day. Oh, first we missed the turn into the building and ended up in a residential/farm area and had to get turned around. Tough one... My helper is good though, directs traffic and me and we got it !!!

Picked up an empty there and headed to the Pilot in Minooka. This morning we're headed a whopping 36 miles to University Park, IL and picking up food stuff at Smuckers and delivering to Sam's club 1 mile away. Not sure what the rest of the day holds. We learned Thurs night in a Schneider driver conf call that because of the slowing economy and slowing freight that Schneider is picking up these little loads to keep drivers busy and attract customers. Well ain't that grand ?/?/

We'll see what comes up next.
