Shreveport, LA

After a relaxing weekend, I had some miles to knock out today. I figured if I wanted some decent hours remaining to give me any chance of picking up another load after tomorrow morning's delivery, I had better use all my hours today. I left around 6am and made it here at 6pm with just under 11 hours of drive time, so I should be set for a 3 hour drive to my drop in the morning and plenty of hours left for a pick-up (hint hint, dispatcher).

I stopped in Mississippi for a quick break this morning and almost broke a sweat. It's easy to forget it's December when the temperature is in the 70's.

The trip was pretty smooth, save for some torrential rain in Louisiana and the suicidal drivers that came with it. I came across one genius doing 45mph in a 70mph zone with no flashers on. I almost granted his wish. Yeah, better luck next time buddy.

Well, my belly is full and the bed is calling.
