Blog, Where we are today
I am home today
By MrBoyd • May 11th, 2008 • Category: Blog, Where we are todayI made it in about 10 PM yesterday. It always feels good to get home and sleep in my own bed.
On the way down, I tried to visit with Alice Eisenhower of Alice’s Pilot Cars in Colorado Springs, but unfortunately she was busy. I DID stop in Raton and had lunch with John Owens of Owens’ Logistics. John has been in the pilot car business for about 8 years and has three other drivers working for him. We had a good visit.
Then, I drove from Raton, NM, to Clayton, NM. In all of my years of driving in NM, somehow I have never driven that route before. It was beautiful. I saw hundreds of antelope feeding within just a few hundred yards of the highway. Most of the road is four lane divided highway. There are some sections still under construction, but all in all, it is a good highway.
Today, I’ve got to clean out the truck first and get it ready for the next run. Then, I’ve got to do some repairs on my carport. 40-60 mile winds are ripping it apart and if I don’t do something, it will completely collapse around me. Then, I’ve got to finish repairing a light fixture for my dining room ceiling fan.
Tomorrow I’ve got to get a front end alignment and a new windshield for my truck.
