Food!

clifbar.crunchy peanut butter

I made a comment on Twitter today about the Clif Bar I was eating, and I just thought I’d touch on the subject of food, and what I find very helpful for trucking, as well as home life. For the past 5 or 6 years I’ve been eating more and more organic, naturally raised products. [...]

Western Daydreams

wy+daydreaming

It doesn’t have to be the blue iris, it could be weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones; just pay attention, then patch a few words together and don’t try to make them elaborate, this isn’t a contest but the doorway into thanks, and a silence in which another voice can speak. [...]

IMG_1218

I thought I would do a quick post since I whipped these up this afternoon. Living in a truck has its goods and bad. For me, I’ve found some easy ways to adapt living in a truck box most like living at home which makes road life pretty good. One thing I have found though, [...]

I’ll Be Back

Last night I had a bit of a mishap while dropping my trailer. I’m okay, but I ended up smashing my finger and knuckle against my trailer because I wasn’t probably paying as good of attention as I should have been. I ended up with a very slight fracture so I’m very slow on the [...]

We lost a hen the night before last night. She was one of my Black Australorps which really makes me mad. I knew as soon as I opened up the coop yesterday morning… A pile of  feathers was all I could see. I spent all afternoon working to make sure it wouldn’t happen again. I [...]

Early Morning Ride

Riding along early morning, is a feeling that can not be described… It has to be felt. And it’s one of the biggest reasons I’m out here. The world is magic, you just need to find it…

A Family Thing

grandpa1

The one thing I have learned over the years is that I’m not like a lot of the drivers out on the roads today. Granted, there are still a lot of drivers with my love and respect for trucking, but it seems these days we are further and fewer in between. Today it seems, these [...]

Cat House

sweetpea

Sweet Pea is the first that I saved when I moved out to this farm. Hubs was on a fishing trip the week I found her, which was a good thing since he thought cats belonged in barns rather than houses. We had numerous ferrel cats that lived in the barn, but I couldn’t ever [...]

A Drivers View #3

We are all familiar with some of the reasons that the professional truck driver is under attack. Although I see these drivers out on the road too, I want you to know there are more top notch drivers out here than you may think. As a professional driver, I am very proud of what I [...]
