Temple, GA - 5/7/09

As planned, I got rolling good and early this morning, arriving in Cherokee almost seven hours later. Yesterday, I called the receiver and was told by the guard that I wouldn't be unloaded early. Apparently, sometime between then and today he changed his mind, as I checked in five hours early and he didn't say anything. Well, alright then. That's a good start. I went through the gate before he changed his mind and around to the docks to give the warehouse folks my paperwork and to see when my next load would be ready. Surprisingly, more good news: I could drop my trailer in a dock and my load should be ready any minute. Wow, if this works out, I may not have to drive all night.

Sure enough, my load was ready in about fifteen minutes and I was out of there. I couldn't have planned it any better. I'll have to head out of here by 3:30am, but 3:30-5am is better than 10pm-5am.

I couldn't have planned it any better. And if you had, it wouldn't have happened. Glad you won't be driving all night.
