So Plans change

Quite rapidly it seems. They went through Kentucky into Tennessee went west and got sent to Arkansas where they dropped that trailer for someone else to take to Louisiana and picked up one and headed back for Ohio. He said that Kentucky was very sad as they had a very hard ice storm 2 days before and evergreens were just clumps of ice laying on the ground and that there was huge amounts of damage. They stopped at one truck stop, no one was there as there had been no electricity for 2 days, luckily made it to the next truck stop without running out of gas. They went through the town where his old buddy Dan Fritz lived. If any of you know him he was Steve Fritz's brother. Anyway thought he would like to have his widow's number for next time if ever he goes through there again.

They are back in Ohio not supposed to have to pick up the load until 11 am tomorrow. Headed towards Oklahoma with it then back to Springfield Illinois and home leave for 2 days. Scott figures that he will be able to finish his hours next week anyway. He needs to drive 300 hours and has 220 to 230 done. He really sounded hopeful of getting home for his birthday but if he does not make it then maybe by Becky's hers is the 18th which would give him an extra 5 days.

He is really looking forward to freedom from training or trainer however that goes. Have a good weekend.
