Vernon,TX

Wow, how time flies! Let me see if I can catch you up.

After our foray into the NJ area, we got a load headed out to CA but we ended up dropping it at our yard in Springfield,MO. You got it, the A/C went out again. We ended up being there for 2 days but I have to say, a week later, the A/C is still working!!!

When we headed out of there we got a load to Amarillo,TX. We had to make a stop in Lubbock to pick up our snow chains so we were able to see family. After we delivered in Amarillo, we took a load from another driver that was broken down and made a delivery to Casa Grande,AZ. Out of there we deadheaded to Vi ctorville,CA and picked up a load and delivered it to Waco,TX yesterday afternoon. This morning, after playing the "find an empty trailer" game, we headed up to Vernon,TX which is where we are currently sitting. This load goes to Atlanta,GA where we will spend the weekend. We are hoping to work on the boat but they have had an unbelievable amount of rain so I don't know what we are going to be able to get done, if anything. Either way, Justin is driving over from Kings Bay Naval Base where he is stationed so we will get to see our son. That will make it all worth while!

Just a heads up - as of right now (8AM EDT) I-20 just west of Atlanta is closed due to flooding. Although the water is coming down, the DOT stills needs to inspect the bridges before they open it to traffic again. Hopefully it will be open before you get there, but just be prepared for a lengthy detour.

Mel, thanks for that info! It is nice to know people out there are watching out for ya even if you've never met! Sorry for the late response. We were constantly checking road conditions because we had heard about I-20 being closed. Than goodness they had it opened when we came through!
