Gotta Keep Rollin'

It is now Day 6 of this road trip. I have been to Tenn., Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, West Virginia, and now Pennsylvania. When we drove through West Virginia I was a little disappointed. lol It turned out to be kind of interesting though... We drove to pick up a load at a hardwood place in Beverly, WV and when we got there, the whole factory was outside standing around. Apparently there was "fire situation".

The only thing I dislike about this whole experience is the showering. Its totally weird. It takes forever to get one and I would much rather take a shower in my own home. I did get a towel that worked the last few times though.. so that's a plus!

I still can't get passed the whole brushing my teeth in a public restroom either... I know its totally normal at a truck stop, but still...

We're waiting at the moment to deliver to some place in Penn... I'm hoping we get to go somewhere exciting next.. South Carolina was really nice... lots of things to look at. Penn. has been pretty darn dull so far...

I'm shooting for New York city... although Dave is not, he doesn't like to drive there... :)

It is such a whole other world out here in trucker land. I have been enjoying all the down time... I stay in the back and watch episodes of Glee and listen to Dave yell at "4-wheelers" as that is the truck lingo for cars and trucks, as they cut him off or drive slow... lol He gets some pretty bad road rage out here... understandable too because hes driving a massive vehicle and needs to be aware at all times. I'm thankful hes so particular about his driving, otherwise we would have crashed.. many.. many times because of little cars and trucks wanting to pass him. Traffic is scary!

Also, I got to talk on the CB! We were in MAJOR traffic because of road work yesterday and he was trying to find out what lane we needed to be in and nobody would talk to him... so he got the bright idea for me ( a girl ) to say "what lane do I need to be in?" and see if anybody would respond, so I did... and there was at least 4 men that told me to get in the right lane. BAHAHAHAHA Men..... poor fellas.

Also, never walk into a truck stop by yourself. I had to use the bathroom, and apparently these men don't see women who look like women at these things very often, because I have never received so many "hello's, hi's, nods, and even a few hola's" in my life. Very good for my self-esteem, but a little creepy....

So Dave is waiting on me to finish this so we can leave.. we only have Internet access for the next month at Pilot's truck stops and I want to use it as long as I can lol and hes getting anxious.

Here we go!
