Last Run of the Year
Hello to all,
I have just finished my last run for 2009. I made it home safely and will spend Christmas with my family. This week on my travels, I experienced lots of rain. I think it rained every day for a week. When I arrived home, we had sleet, rain and snow . Definately a good mix for a white Christmas in North Carolina. I enjoy the winter with it’s beauty of white snow and I always have fun as I’m a big fan of winter sports.
This week, I had the opportunity to run across a fellow Slice of Trucker Life driver, Kurt Grote. We met in Laredo, TX at the Flying J Truckstop. We ate lunch and discussed the past year. We talked about our experiences throughout the Slice of Trucker Life program. We are both pleased with the performance of the Cascadia and the Detroit Diesel DD15. We shared with one another how we plan to spec our new trucks for 2010. The new trucks will feature the latest blue tech SCR engines. My favorite waitress served us our meal and tried to talk us into enjoying some pie for dessert. She’s one of those people I spoke of who make life on the road a little easier. She always offers a smile and does her job well. Another behind the scenes hero. It was great to see Kurt this week. Until next time… be safe,
Henry
