2 RV's to Freemont CA

... spending the night at home

Load board (Friday)

US - 342

IA - 149

We were still stuck in traffic when it was 8 AM. We called on both of our phones, but by the time someone answered one of the ones we wanted was gone and we listened to the last one being taken when we were put on hold (After we got our trips) 150 trips on the load board and the four to where we want to go are the first ones to go. Not sure the attraction.

We are going to Freemont CA, leaving on Sunday to deliver on Thursday.

The ones we wanted would have paid a little better but anything to this location would be our best paying option.

Before we took the trip we reserved two cars. A local for $40 a day and a one way for $70 a day. It's been a long time since we have seen them prices. We'll make money either way but hopefully we get a bus coming back east.

Our third option would have been to drop in two different locations but that takes more time.

I'm still dealing with my DOT issue. The office will have it corrected by 1 PM, but they can not fax it to my carrier because of 'privacy issues.' So we need to leave the fair by about 2 PM to get to their office and then to the carrier before both close. I had hoped that office would have been open on Saturday but no, and I need to get it done before leaving town for 2-3 weeks.

I get it done so all should be happy for another year.

When I was at the carrier we saw six buses for NY staged to ship out this weekend plus a couple of semi tractors to be moved.

To top the evening off another driver called and we talked on the phone for about an hour. That was after they were asking questions on messenger twice as fast as I could answer them.
