Its 7:37 and I just woke up, Im now getting ready to deliver some roof elements to a new building in Gressvik near Fredrikstad in Østfold. I was supposed to unload at 8:00, but because of some mistakes the last truck (Kjell Sverre) is going to be unloaded before me. Its not much room here for three semi trailers, but we got it figured out somehow. Kjetil the driver of the 3rd truck is waiting at the local grocery stores parking lot.
The time is now 10:30 and Im counting hours.

The rock is now loaded at the North Sea Stone Industry in Sirevåg, Rogaland. As you can see on the picture, its pretty large but I did expect it to be larger. The weight was around 35,2 ton.

Ok, the vacation is over and Im back to work. Tomorrow Im going with a load from Larvik to Sandefjord. Yes I know, its a great trip. Lets hope it gets better soon or I might have too look for something else. Actually I have been thinking about it for a long time. The tought of having a 9-5 job is very tempting, but still not sure what to do about it cause that would mean an decrease in salary, but I might go for it later.
