You are a braveheart...

Keep a set of ear plugs, because at times they will really help.
I hope your new partner is not a goofball like me. I'll pray for you.

When I'm in the bunk rolling down the road, I just think of it as rocking the cradle, and I'm drooling on the pillow, in a minute and a half.

You will get to see some Mule Deer and some Elk along the road. That always got my hind leg shaking.

 

So.....yer sister lives where? Graham? Puyallup? Gig Harbor? Hmmmmmmmm?

=-P

DuPont! She lives in DuPont and works for State Farm!!

 

She's near Bremerton. I usually take the ferry from Seattle but not this time. Is that more than an hour?

 

Brave or crazy? It's a fine line. Honestly I wold prefer a goofball like you to some long-winded know-it-all. You know the type.

I'm taking my air matress but trying to figure out how I'm going to climb into the top bunk. Step stool at least.

I've seen a lot of wild life out there but still hope to see that elusive Jack-a-lope.

 

Actually, there's a lot to be said for those "long-winded, know-it-alls. Look at Romney and Obama, look at all the money they have, and there are a lot of people that are giving them even more to spend...... I, for one, do not think you're crazy. Of course, I could be crazy too, so I wouldn't know the difference.....
There should be some steps built into the cabinets that you can use. Look for the "non-skid tape" stuck on a couple of horizontal surfaces. First step may be the lower bunk. But......

I.... Believe..... I'd be a bit more concerned about how I was getting OUT of the top bunk... Does that truck have the bunk straps or netting for the upper bunk? I seem to remember something about the upper bunk was not to be occupied while the truck was moving.... No "load securement" could mean a sudden exit during a panic stop...
I almost chased one down at Wagonhound, WY a few years ago... But I zigged when he zagged, and I miss my grab for an antler.

 

We left yesterday @ 4:00. He drove about an hour, more or less just to talk since we had never met. The trip is a little over 2100 miles so I drove 10 hrs , he drove 10 etc.. My second leg included Lookout & 4th of July. Lookout was just after sunrise so a few wet spots but mostly clear. It was a fairly light load so made it up and down in 9th. With the jake I never touched the brakes. Sweet! He drove from Spokane in so he could show me where the drops are. This is his hometime. Tomorrow I'll deliver in Woodinville, Renton & Auburn. Then drop the empty in Fife and go off duty ( layover pay) until 20:00 Friday. Pickup the load, pickup Mike and head back to Illinois.

I did have trouble sleeping though. And driving solo is much less hectic. I haven't decided if I'll do it again next week.

 

So, which one of you rolled their eyes first. j/k

 

yep tell us lol

 

That would be me.

 

haha up or down
