Graduated! Now an official "Mother Trucker!"

I finished Systems orientation on March 3rd so I am official. Our first load took us 2595 miles to New Jersey and I drove most of the time. We lucked out with the weather because there was a really bad storm but we were able to stay one step ahead and had good weather all the way there. We sat in New Jersey for 3 days and then got a load to L.A. so were went from the west coast to the east coast and back again. I am loving it......





With flat bed, most loads have to be tarped, (this i hate) so here i am trying to tarp and it was quite hard. I couldn't move for a day or so, but the good thing is i am building muscle. Ha Ha
