other dog Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 To tell you the truth Ed, when I got unloaded in Pilot Point it was a little after 1pm,eastern time, and I had to haul ass to Blytheville to load. My appointment time was 11pm, and I had 500 miles to go. But I did think about calling both of them, but since I really didn't have time to stop I didn't call.I would have told them to make the appointment for the next morning, but they had already taken the load and it had to be picked up before 4am or they couldn't get another load out of there for 2 weeks, so the pressure was on me. I got there at 10,an hour early, and hadn't been there 10 minutes when they called on the radio for any trucks in the staging area to come to the scales. I hadn't even finished the can of beany weenys I was eating, since I didn't even have time to stop to eat on the way there. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

HeavyGunner Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 It was snowing in Concord Monday- looks a lot a little bit nothing like Heavygunner's Montana pictures,eh?Yeah this last week it decided to do the below zero thing and stayed there. First few pics are from Wednesday after it snowed the night before. Lots of drifts to deal with. The last crappy pic was the blizzard Thursday on the same road, lots of drifts to bust through. They were setting up and getting pretty hard had all the diffs locked in at times to claw through.Had to take my shepherds ice fishing this afternoon. 2 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Nice to not have the traffic to deal with but you'd better be prepared with with warm clothes, food and water and plenty of fuel in case you spend a few hours in a snow bank waiting for a cat or a big tractor to come pull you out. I'll still take snow banks over people any day. 2 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

This is what I like best about BMT, I can re-live the joys of long haul trucking without actually having to deal with the BS...I haven't been on the road since 98 and it's nice to see nothings changed. Just reading this makes me want to fuel up so I can get my free shower...if they ever get one cleaned. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Tom, I don't remember your chief (or it was dispetcher Randy?) sent you that far.Thank you for sharing the road pictures, I've never crossed the river of Missisippy.That KW in the mirror looks worth the picture.As for Heavy Gunner's shots... It seems not many chances to buff bugs off a windscreen. Especially wearing a Winfall style clothes Currently you can find something like that overhere on the local roads. -15 -20 Celsias for the two last weeks. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
