Well, we loaded in Georgia and had a very uneventful trip to McGuire AFB in New Jersey. I called to arrange for secure hold for the weekend and found out we could deliver on Saturday, so we didn't have to have a "secure" weekend!
Saturday afternoon we found a good restaurant for a late lunch then headed to a truck stop to wait for a load. Nobody moved all weekend so we did laundry on Sunday and rested up. While doing laundry I was lucky enough to listen to a Longgg Island driver gripe about the company he just started with a couple of weeks ago. He was wound pretty tight. He could've been scary if it wasn't so funny. Another driver looked at me after LI guy left and started cracking up!! Oh well, it made the laundry time go fast.
Monday afternoon brought a load going to New Haven, Connecticut. We took 96 boxes of paper baking molds to a company called Something Sweet. Since we had to go through NYC to get there, we hit a rest stop and slept until 2 am and then headed to the city. That's the ONLY way to make that trip!!!
We off-loaded about 7:30 this morning and found a truck stop to wait for the next load. It was so nice here and we enjoyed being able to just keep the windows open and not have to run the AC.
Just about lunchtime we got a load offer so we headed to Long Island to pick it up and we are now sitting it traffic on I-95, but at least we are headed to Georgia and out of this northeast mess!! Here's a pic of the Throg's Neck bridge.
Dana came up a theory about the stupid people everywhere that seem to be multiplying exponentially. It's called the Bee Brain Theory and is based on reincarnation. Consider this...the human population has exploded while the honeybee population has dwindled. Therefore, it appears that the honeybees are being advanced to human form much too quickly and then grow up and function merely at the Bee Brain level...especially when driving. They go helter-skelter everywhere because as bees there were no traffic laws, no lanes, no restrictions and life was too short to learn.
He also has a theory of why our Vice President is such a blithering idiot. It's called assination insurance. Who would want to kill the president knowing the VP would then be in charge?!?!? Pretty good plan, don't you think?
We're working on other theories and will share them as they develop. Stay tuned!!
