2 RV's to Medford OR
... spending the night at home
We did call on two Sandy OR trips earlier but they were gone by the time someone answered ... but dispatch did say ))) we are not done for the day yet (((
There had also been two RV's going to southern CA that we were going to call on, but BB wanted to know WHERE they were going before we called. In the time it took to Google the town, the trips were gone.
Finally at 4:22, they put out four Medford OR trips and we called right away. Lots of miles and the weather looks good.
So we are getting out of town over the weekend, but not before. Being home gave us time to get caught up/cleaned up on paperwork for the last two trips.
I have an email account that I have had for years that I now just use when I need to log on at a hotel to print paperwork. Last time I could not log on. Email address is correct, password is correct but I can't answer the security questions (likely because I set the account up before they were needed) So now I am locked out of that account and would have to agree to pay $55 a month for a Premium account for them to help/unlock the account for me.

I guess someone else will have to do all the midwest short trips.
We plan on getting up, heading out, at our usual time. Should be able to get to Chamberlin SD tomorrow. Long gaps between major hotels in SD.
They want us to deliver by Weds. That is 500 miles a day Sun, Mon, Tues, Weds so it shouldn't be too hard. And we gain two hours heading west.
We will be closer to the CA buses when we drop in OR than if we had taken the trips to LA/San Diego. Down side is that that dispatcher never puts trips on the load board, but right now he has a dozen, all going to LA. So I'm guessing he'll want us to do one before we head out of town. Pay is great but traffic is ... LA. IF we do that trip again, I think we will get a one way out of LA instead of BB following me, it's more money but less stress ... for both of us.
