When you gotta go....

Picture it....New Jersey turnpike, rush hour, accident blocking 5 lanes of traffic.....

Yet somehow we all managed to move along at a slow crawl. Those impatient drivers changing from one lane to another because they think it will get them home faster.

Now the fly in the soup ......you gotta pee.

You've been on the Turnpike an hour and could be here another one at the very least. Your pushing 60 years old, have a head of gray hair, drive a nice fancy silver car that matches your hair.

The other fly.....you can't hold it a second longer.

So as a highway full of people look on you pull over to the shoulder. Get out of your car dressed in a nice pair of khaki pants and button down shirt and frantically look for a place to pee.

Alas, that row of trees you thought you could quickly disappear into is really a fence line overgrown with weeds. Yikes! Now what? Only one thing left to do! Turn your back and breath a sigh of relief!

Oh yeah and hope no one notices or blogs about it!

Back on the road!

Yes we had an excellent two week vacation! I personally think that should be the minimum time spent at home....you get paperwork done, bills paid, there's time to see friends and family and take care of yourself!

As we left on Monday I realized how much I enjoyed the job.....then around 3am I realized how much I hate the job! LOL. But isn't it like that with all jobs? It certainly is! So just like life, you take the good with the bad.

We are making some cool military deliveries though......

Rain showers

It's amazing when you travel that sometimes you can go in and out of a storm so quickly and others are days and days of rain. This was after a nice thunderstorm....taken one handed at 65 mph. Pretty good huh?

It's not an accent!

Well I have to say that some places have a deeper southern drawl than others. Here in Florence SC it's pretty thick. But if you spend the time talking to people you begin to realize that it's not an accent, it's an attitude!

These people are warm, friendly and loooove to talk about anything at all.

I'm in love with the south (even though its hot)!
