Thought I’d give you a little (very little) glimpse into the world of living in a flat-top Peterbilt. This is how I live my life on the road, it’s just a quick tour around the inside of Rosie. If anyone is wondering where they can find the duvet cover I have you can find it [...]
Ever Feel Like…

Your being watched? I thought I was while out in the garden this afternoon…. Click on picture to enlarge and see the face. Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky. ~Rabindranath Tagore
Home Again, Home Again

Before I get into the farm stuff I wanted to say a quick thank you to a few people who have given One Girl Trucking a mention on their websites in the last couple of weeks! I want you to know I appreciate the mention and I hope you dear readers check them and their [...]
Texas and Squeak

I wasn’t home long this time, but I was there long enough to love everyone up, feed hubs a meal or two and hit the road again… Today, I’m sitting just north of Austin Texas waiting for everyone to go home so I can get back on the road later this evening. Since I run [...]
Truck Stops 101

I’m going to start a new page here at One Girl Trucking on Truck-stop facilities. As most drivers know a good truck stop these days can be hard to find. Some of you that are newer to the industry may not know the difference, but if you’ve been out here a while you will remember [...]
The Easy Way Out

A few weeks ago when I was waiting to check in at a produce shed, a younger driver asked me two questions while standing there. The first was where he could get a permit to go into New Mexico. The second was, where are the weigh stations at? I told him most of the bigger [...]
Gone to the Dogs… For Steph

Long before I ever had a computer or cell phone in a truck, I had a dog in my truck. I’ve been putting off introducing her because since hubs fell off the roof last fall she has been with my parents, living a very cushy life in northern Minnesota. I’m thinking that when it comes [...]
Trucking & Money

They go together all too well. One thing I see a lot of drivers do when they buy a truck is have someone do all of the work on their truck for them which never saves money. Either out of sheer laziness or the lack of ability, they think it’s easier to have someone else [...]
Happy Easter

It was a beautiful day today in Minnesota. Two of my step sons and their girlfriends came out to the farm today. The youngest got home yesterday from Kuwait for good!! He’s been gone a year and we are so happy to have him home, not to mention how happy we are that he’s home [...]
California

I found this cute little owl- the burrowing owl, in Desert Hot Springs. He was as interested in me and I was him which I thought was cool. I took this shot from in my cab, but when I would get out of the truck he would jump behind the curb he was standing on [...]
