I got a load out of Tulsa delivering in Philly. It was a good load, 2 industrial AC units, 4300 lbs total weight and no tarp. However, somewhere around Columbus, Oh I got a call from my fleet manager asking if I would repower that load in Canton, Oh so that another driver could get home to Philly, no problem. Actually it worked out great, I got a load from Minster, Oh to Laredo, Tx. 1400 miles due monday. 5 coils weighing around 8000 lbs each, tarped. I'll be there sometime this weekend depending on how hard I feel like driving it. I am going to route through Tulsa to get my TWIC card application started. TWIC (Transportation Worker Identification Credential)is a money thing that "they" are requiring truckers to get in order to pull loads in and out of ports. It cost 130.00 bucks. Plus I am going to start my passport procedures because as of June 1st, a birth certificate wont get you into Canada, it will require a passport. Soooo, tomorrow morning I will roll into the Tulsa terminal around 8am or so, do all of that, and probably sleep there tomorrow night and get up saturday and start towards Laredo.
