I'm not pulling a bull rack unless it's empty and clean and does not need to be loaded with cattle. So no I haven't. They have plenty of guys to do the dirty work.
But I am at our plant in Hyrum And if they needed me and said pretty please with cherries on top. Heck I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. But if I actually did pick up and deliver some cows. My head wouldn't be able to fit in the k Dubya. Heck Id probably go out and buy a cowboy hat and boots.
Anyway back to reality b4 I go to the office and ask them if they need A load of heffers delivered to the plant. So I can get them boxed up so we can go to San Antonio!!

Load's ready but no hours at the moment. Still debating on when to leave only 4 hours left on 70. Was thinking I can get a restart in Sunday night into Monday since load is not due till Tuesday. Decisions decisions!!
Also noticed my fingers swelling on my walk. But when done they went back to normal. 3 miles!! I may do more walking later if I don't decide to leave until after midnight.

When performing an exercise such as walking or running, you may sometimes notice that your fingers and hands become swollen. Although this fluid retention may be bothersome and uncomfortable, under almost all circumstances it is a normal physiological response to exertion and is not cause for alarm. Some individuals are more susceptible than others to exercise-induced swelling of the hands.
That's from live strong.com
Still here in grants. The alarm went off and my body said it was on strike. Plus I'm not familiar wth the truck stop situation between ft Stockton and junction Texas. Or how much time I can estimate on 285 from New Mexico to Texas. It will be my first time going that way.
I guess I'll be in academy sports and outdoors country so I may be able to get me some new boots, shoes, and maybe even some roller blades. I'm back quiet.

Sarcastic remark goes here
What's the history of JBS?
As I recall, Swift and Company was bought out by some douchebag from Argentina and he decided to buy a bunch of trucks & haul the product and reduce the amount of freight given to common carriers.
We lost a LOT of freight because Swift was one of our biggest customers. They had to call up Tyson & now we're Tyson's little lap-dog.
I hate hauling for Tyson.

He's from Brazil I believe and they bought a bunch of meat companies. I'm not sure if it was before or after but they pictures of Jbs Carriers trucks pulling road trains in Australia. A picture of truck in Brasil as well. We are world wide.
The company i worked for also lost a lot of business and we ended up doing more Cargil and Tyson loads as well. With CSA 2010 around the corner I came over here.
I haven't been to marshalltown in awhile. Not sure if that's were you guys did a lot of business. They have been changing things around lately so we don't pick up as many loads from the pork plants like we use to.

Was going to do my 4 or 5 laps around the Petro but when I got to the mechanic shop to turn down. I was like hmmmm let me walk to the end of the street. Then I seen a crossover at the end of that street so I went to and over it. Then I was like well let me walk to end of that street. Got to the end and seen side walks so pretty much made the block all the way back to Petro and since I hadn't reached my step goal I went back to crossover with plans to run/jog to the other side but after taking two steps. Decided it would be better to walk it. Then I came back to truck. Mental note don't go on 3 mile walk on an empty stomach.

Tried to stop at a rest area. It was filled with cars.
So chugged along till I found a wide spot on the feeder road with 9 min left on the clock.
Didn't think I'd get my walking in today. But said to heck with those snakes. I ain't that scarred. Managed to knock out 9500 steps best so far. I'm sure the people watching me walk along the feeder thought I was a mental case. But had to getter done.
Oh Ya somewhere between Sonora and junction, Texas

I would prefer a laptop too. As soon as I can stop supporting my soon to be ex. That may be my first purchase. Really I was on the side of the road 4 realz. Was running out of time and didnt know if they closed the parking area on my 6 or 7 yr old map. Plus couldn't see any parking area on Google maps. When I did get on highway I seen the sign 1 mile to picnic Area. But it was a nice spot out of the way and a couple more trucks were parked when I left.

Either way but it is much easier to ask, Do You know R.J. from Toronto, Than it is to ask do you remember a big naked dick from 17 years ago.
