What a week

Well we thought Michigan was bad...then we went on to Ontario Canada. It was about 30 degrees below zero not even counting the windchill! As soon as we delivered our load in Woodstock, Ontario we headed to the truck stop, got some sleep and then a really good steak and egg breakfast/lunch.



Soon we got a load headed to Mt. Vernon! Whoo hoo! A paid trip home on Friday. We hadn't been home in 11 days and needed to do laundry. We left the shipper at 8:30 pm and sat at the border from 11 pm until 4 am waiting for our load to be cleared. Not fun!! Finally we cleared and headed to Mt. Vernon, delivering our load about 10:30 am.



We made a quick stop to see two sweet young ladies who didn't have school and then headed for Dresden. Two miles from the house we were called to pick up a load in Dover, headed for North Carolina. We negotiated the pick up time so we could pick up the mail and check on the cats and then we headed back out.



So, it's Saturday and we are near Hickory, NC. We found a laundry mat and I did seven loads! But at least all the blankets and sheets are clean too. I just hit Wal Mart and we have food and dog bones again, so I think we are ready to go again!!
