WAY SOUTH
We had a choice of 3 loads...Canada, North Dakota, and Texas. Duh, the winds were 30something below up north, course we took Texas. Got a loaded trailer that came in from Iowa on Friday and didn't have to be in Pharr, Tx till Sunday. Drove down to Anna,Tx for the night, just north of Dallas, the wind was brutal cold even there.
Drove all the way down on Saturday, was a really good day. Went to the customer Sunday morning....no one there..closed on Sunday : ( was lucky to find truck parking one mile away to wait for Monday morning. We were looking at the gate to go over into Mexico, the town of Reynosa not far. I'm a little leary of going over to do the tourist thing there. Ricky is sick so no real reason to test it this time. He has a cold and is fighting another kidney stone. He is running fever, not sure from the cold or an infection. Can't talk him into seeing a doctor yet.
They dead headed us to Laredo after our delivery. # 54 on the board when we got here, will give Ricky a chance to rest. He didn't sleep much last night. They are remodeling the terminal here... it is a mess. portapotties, portashowers, and no laundry. One good thing... 75 degrees today : ) hear there's another artic blast comin though. We'll probably get a load into it. Now Florida would be good... although my mama got snow in south Mississippi this week, it is so rare to snow there. I've just seen it about 3 or 4 times in my 52 years.
Well our soup is heated up, gonna grab a bite and try for some sleep tonight. Catch you up later.
