Last delivery before Christmas
Christmas is soon here and I'm at Loves in Jeffersonville just off 71 waiting to do my last delivery of bananas before Christmas. Should be home in the early hours of tomorrow.
Walmart WCH
Long day for sure, started from King of Prussia this morning around 8:30. Headed down 76 towards Philly and over to Gloucester NJ to pick up bananas. Arrived an hour later and checked in.
Now all that was left was to wait wait and wait. Just after 14:00 i was assigned to a door t...
Quakertown
Arriving a little earlier today because I was supposed to pick up a load back to Washington Courthouse from Vineland New Jersey at the same time as my delivery appointment here.
I just assumed that since the pick up time was the same as the delivery appointment from a different locatio...
Lidl DC Perryville
I took my night outside the Turkey Hill gas station like I usually do cause my trailer wasn't ready and I was there a little too early and my hours were getting short.
I woke up at 5 AM this morning picked up my trailer and headed down towards the customer in Perryville. This is a new ...
Bananas back to Ohio
I picked this banana load up Friday morning and I was back in Ohio around 8 PM the same day.
I had to Saturday off, but I left home around 11:30 PM and headed down to the Washington Courthouse where I'm at right now. When I got here I had a couple of hours of sleep then I checked in an...
Holiday weekend
With 4th of July almost over I headed down to Washington Courthouse for a delivery of bananas from Gloves Gloucester City NJ.
The appointment was 3am on Monday and my next load was from Kopp Turkey in Harrison to Quakertown PA
Weekend
After getting loaded up with bananas on Wednesday afternoon my 14 was getting low and so was my energy levels so I pulled over in Carlisle at the company yard and called it a night. I had too much time on my hands for this load, but don't get me wrong, nothing is better than that.
I tr...
Return to Ohio
The delivery out on Long Island went thru like a breeze, just after 9 I rolled away towards Bordentown for fuel then bananas in Gloucester City.
Once arrived at Del Monte and checked in I wasn't sitting for long before they called me with a door. Loading up went pretty quick toda...
Escaping from rain
Had a good sunny weekend, was able to buy a polisher and a grinder so hopefully, I can start polishing the rims on the truck next week. It's really needed. I got up early Monday morning to get ready for another week on the road. The day was gloomy with grey clouds and it was pouring down. I le...
Cold snow and fresh bananas
Made it the the usual place for my Washington Courthouse deliveries. The Loves at Jeffersonville, across the highway from the outlet.
I really dislike early deliveries like this, but it could be worse. I parked around 4, for a shower and some food, then I was chilling for a while watch...
Ice storm
This week started with some fresh snow that came overnight from Sunday, but not too bad and I started like I normal would on a turkey load from Harrison.
The rest of the trip to Quakertown went pretty smooth, the snow kinda disappeared as I got further east and it eventually started to...

After shuttling Dole loads between Springfield Ohio and Bensalem Pennsylvania 2-3 times weekly since my last blog entry it's now over unfortunately.

Reefer problems
Been having some issues with the reefer on this trailer, it randomly shutting off due to an alternator/battery error so I decided it was time to fix it, so here I am at TA in Wheeling WV.
My banana load is scheduled for delivery tomorrow at Walmart DC in Washington Court House at 4 am....
White Toque
Haven't been able up update very much lately on this blog, mainly because I've been busy with work, my project and washing my hands.
Things are really getting crazy over here now, they're shutting literally down everything except grocery stores and pharmacies. It's really scary t...
From the dirty south to the cold north
Just done with my delivery at Ryder in Rochelle IL. My appointment was at 0400 and I backed into a door then went to bed. At 0830 this morning they knocked on my door and told me they were ready to unload. Done at 11:00 which gives me 5 hour detention pay.
I was loaded up at Amer...
