North, then south

Today I ran that load from Omaha down to Russellville, Arkansas. I didn't look closely at the mileage, only realizing after I accepted the trip that it was a full day's drive to pick up the load then deliver it.

While I was at the yard a company truck pulled up and a driver walked over and asked if I was the driver with the blog. Turns out that two drivers have used me as a reference since I began with Hill Bros, and now Ken B. and I have met in person. I told him when we meet up next I owe him a nice dinner for the referral bonus!

The trip down to Russellville was uneventful and the traffic light. I wasn't rooting for either team in the Superbowl and didn't even have the game on.
