Being Safe

creepy shadow

The road can be a good place or a very bad place depending on how you look at it. I have been pretty lucky over the years but I still have had a few run in’s with the wrong people… Once while in McAllen Tx I was the last to load my produce and that [...]

How I live

cab+view

One thing I want to do with this blog is show people how truckers live in trucks. Since I’m sitting in Texas and it’s raining out I thought I’d take the time to shoot a few photos of Rosie and how I live. This is the cab view. It’s what I look at all day [...]

Getting Ready

It’s been a weekend for work. Since hubs is without feet, my parents drove 200 miles with wood, nails, screws, and the kitchen sink to help me get things in order around here. We have out buildings that we use to store tractors, snow removal equipment, extra cars and trucks and the list goes on [...]
