We are looking for work, starting looking sometime on Friday but nothing Friday.


Today we both watched the board at times. We were not watching it every minute like we would if we were sitting in the parking lot in IA, but we were checking it quite frequently. And if we saw something new on the board we would keep checking for the next few minutes.


It seems they put things on in batches, we see that is how they are brought over. I don't think the board ever got over 20 but they may have added 30 or so during the day. The first ones went pretty fast. And some, like Reno and Davis, would be on the board and gone and back on. BB's computer changes the color of the text if she looks at an order like a link to a website does.


Overnight there are still two RV's to 1,000 Oaks but that is by LA. The Reno one is finally gone but one Davis is still there. There had been a different Davis early in the day but we are not to the point of grabbing just one yet. There is also an El Cajon down closer to San Diego to a place we have gone before.


There also were trips going up to OR and WA and a few MT on the way.


Leaving yesterday with a CA would have been a push, taking one today would give us time for a re-start and leaving Wednesday is ideal so more people will be ready to grab.


There were also a few to FL but we are trying to stay away from the hot Covid spots.


Covid - Deaths are staying under 10 daily in MN. Did hit 9 one day. I was at the gas station and watched as two separate cars drove in and the people parked and were walking to go in without their masks. Both did turn around and go get their masks once they saw the sign. I don't go in locally. And I am still using either paper towel or gloves when fueling.


Long days just sitting home. Mostly too hot to spend a lot of time outside and very few places to go. Normally I would have made a few trips to the Farm and Fleet store but I'm still not going anywhere we don't have to. One trip a week to either Cub or Walmart depending on what we need and then in and out as quickly as possible. Not on a dead run, but having a list and not walking extra isles and sometimes even having one person grab something from one isle while the other goes to get the next item on the list.


US - 100

IA - 17

MN - 3

WI - 6


Looks like the local company is finally looking at electronic logs. Sounds like they will need them for Canada by next year. I had looked at a lot of the logs a couple of years ago. Even started a website to do reviews on the ones I looked at. The website was on a 'free' hosting site and was quickly taken down when it didn't get any traffic. I never made copies of anything so that is all lost. And I did all the testing live on my note pad and that was stolen last winter so now I don't even know which ones I looked at.


Anything I sign up for on my computer I keep log in info of but because it was on my laptop I never transferred that info and saved it. I must have just logged in once and the info was saved. Oh well, I'll start using electronic when I have to and we don't go to Canada so I don't think it will be soon.


The over the road company is looking at going paperless, we had a few post on FB about that. Some of the drivers at that company use paperless but the company isn't pushing it.


Coming up ... another day of watching the load board.
