Well, I’m parked for the night in Hamburg, PA. Today I came into my first snow for this coming winter. Here is a picture of Sunshine exploring it.

Good Morning to all my family and friends! I had a long busy week last week. I was working nights and did not get on the internet, sorry I was gone, but I was just too tired to do anything but work, eat and sleep.
This morning I’m in St George, SC at the Wilco Hess Truck Stop where I took yesterday off and got lots of rest! I’m now back on day shift. I have a load that I picked up in Savannah, GA and am taking to Ramsey, NJ for Monday. Today I expect to travel through, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and finally to stop for the night in Pennsylvania.
I’m hoping to get a chance to stop somewhere along the route at a Truck Stop that has a chapel service at the time I’m passing, but as of right now I don’t know where that would be.
Good morning,
Today I have 2 deliveries to make. The first is 3 refrigerated display cases to ShopRite in Bear, DE. The second is 1 refrigerated display case to a ShopRite in Philadelphia, PA. I’m only about 30 min away from the first delivery which is set for 8:30AM. I’ll probably get there early for that delivery, some where between 7:30 and 8:00.
TA has me a bit ticked off. They have shrunk the size of there coffee cups by 4oz and still charging the same as for the old size. They used to be 16, 20, 24oz now they are 12, 16, and 24oz. The 20oz used to be the perfect size, now the choice is to go to one that isn’t big enough or pay for coffee that will be to cold to drink when I get to the last 4oz. Maybe I’ll just switch to Pilot. I like there coffee better anyways.
Yesterday I finally got my loaded trailer and on to the road at about 12:30. So much for hoping for an early day. I parked for the night in Whitsett, NC at the TA at about 9PM. I had dinner and took care of the dog, then went to bed.
Today, I’ll be getting on the road at about 8AM and should be parked by about 4PM for the day. I plan to make it to Elkton, MD and park at the TA tonight. That’s the plan anyways. Today I’ll be going through North Carolina, Virginia, the loop around Washington DC, and then Maryland. Elkton, MD is right on the boarder with Delaware, so I’ll only be about 30 min from my first delivery tomorrow. Yep I said first delivery. That was also a change yesterday that I did not find out about until my trailer was loaded. They added in a new final stop in Philadelphia, PA to go to right after I make my delivery in Bear, DE.
I enjoyed my time at home. It was really good to have a chance to stop by home and spend some time with my family on my way to my pick up. I left home this morning at about 8:45.
I’m sitting at Kysor Warren in Columbus, GA waiting for my new trailer to get loaded. It was supposed to have been pre-loaded. I should make it into North Carolina or Virginia tonight. My route today should be, Georgia, South Carolina, into North Carolina and maybe Virginia. The final destination for my load is Bear, DE. I’ll have ? Refrigerated Display Cases. It will be a light load 
. Hoping to finish driving by about 6pm.
Welcome back to the new OverTheRoad.us blog. After my old site was hacked I took it down to take some time out to study WP Security.
I’m starting this new blog off from home. I’m on my way from Miami, FL to Columbus, GA to pick up a load going to Bear, DE for a Monday morning delivery. So that allowed me to stop for the night at home and spend time with my family! That is always a blessing!
