Ohio... again?

September 27, 2007 - Thursday

Well I'm stopped at the Indy OC for a lunch and rest break. Then it's on to Zanesville Ohio to drop the load I picked up yesterday evening in Green Bay. It's not been too bad, a nice light load actually so I can cruise up and down the hills with no problem. That makes me happy.

It's been a pretty good trip so far. After getting the load I decided to drive and get past Chicago last night. I also decided to take my own directions and go down I-294 instead of I-94 which is under major construction in Chi-town. It was much nicer... less stress and a smoother ride. Amen! I stopped at the Gary, IN OC last night for my break... I had to circle the lot three times before I finally gave in and parked my truck way out in never never land where all the empty trailers are parked. I wasn't the only one... but it was a loooong walk to the bathroom this morning! haha

So then I got on the road this morning after a nice hot shower and so far here I sit. I should be in Columbus in about 3 hours once I leave here and that's where I'll probably shut down for the night. Then I have only about an hour or so to drive in the morning to make my delivery. Shouldn't be too bad.

I'm getting excited about home time again. I should be home on Oct. 9th and 10th. I will probably get in on the night of the 8th and have to leave out again on the 11th. I'm gonna ask my manager (DBL) before I leave here if she marked it guaranteed so I can make plans for my dr. appointment and Rio-n-Rita's nite.

Well that's it for now.. I'm gonna get moving! I'll blog again soon!

Digital Camera Help...

I recently bought a Kodak EasyShare M863 camera at Circuit City. I am not thrilled with the quality of pictures and some of the camera's functions. Mind you, I've only taken about 50 pictures so far, but when I uploaded them to my laptop and viewed them on the screen, they just looked horrible. My old camera was a Sony Cybershot DSC-S600. It took GREAT pictures but it had a lot of mechanical issues. I'd sent it back to the factory three times and it could really be worked on agian, but alas, my warranty is kaputz. So I've snapped off my usual fare of en route, on the road pictures and all of them suck. I've tried about 5 of the major "settings" and it doesn't seem to matter what I do, but they all turn out grainy and "foggy" and just crummy. For the money I paid for this camera it should take better quality pictures. Of course, today I reviewed the new camera online via various sites and it seems that the "crummy picture syndrome"

Open Forum

I have been thinking about opening myself up for questions and inquiry on both a personal and professional level recently. Today I decided I'd go for it. I am opening the floor to you, my readers, to ask me anything. Now, please understand that I have the right to refuse to answer any question I do no feel will be productive or at least entertaining. I am hoping for some really interesting questions, so don't disappoint me! I also would appreciate keeping things G or at least PG, in case there are young impressionable's reading this blog. I am anxious to see what you want to know about me and my life on the road. As questions come in and I have time to answer them, I will post them as individual blogs. So stay tuned... this should get interesting!

Don't Panic

It's just a facelift. I was tired of the orange and green swirly background. I'm not sure I like this one but it's gonna have to do until I find something more suitable. Sorry.
