It seems that my truck driving adventure has turned into a truck driving job. Ever since I started driving out of the Moberly Walmart terminal the adventure part of my new existence has gone away. Don't get me wrong.....I like what I am doing now. It gets me home around once a week. This is a very good thing. I just don't seem to have much to.write about these days. I will be doing pretty much the same thing everyday.........delivering frozen and refridgerated food items to Walmart stores. The only thing that changes is the location of the stores.
I did get an interesting load last week. I delivered to Cedar Rapids, IA then to Independence, IA then on to Waverly and Mason City, IA. Once I completed all my deliveries to the Walmart stores, I picked up a load from a Kraft warehouse in Mason City and drove it down to the Kraft caves in Springfield, MO. I was able to take a ten hour break in Springfield and was able to.watch one.of Logan's soccer games before picking up another load from the caves and brought it back to Moberly. If I had been able to give Dave and Gary Buresh enough notice, I would have been able to visit them also since they live in Cedar Rapids and Independence, IA. As it turned out, Dave was working and Gary was on his way to work on his new home,.......maybe next time. The only real disappointment was that I didn't have enough time to contact my niece Alli and didn't get to meet her new.daughter Evelyn.
So I will continue to post to this blog. Hopefully it will have something of interest. Last night I delivered to Chesterfield, then Warrenton and Washington, MO. I got.to.drive over the new bridge on highway 47. I almost stopped by my friend Duane's house but thought better of it......too hard to.turn around with a.trailer.attached. I don't know.where i will be going today......I.will let you know........Tom
