Florida Suicide....

Well I finally figured out why old people move to Florida. I think they are just sick of living and come down here in hopes that the combination of heat and humidity will kill them quicker. It maybe a more honorable way of killing yourself but just as effective over the long run. It is 80 something here in Jacksonville. The ride up here over last night was nice. There was a lot of fog and will also be a lot of fog tonight. But no one was on the road and it made for a good night really. I got to my delivery at 3am checked in and took a nice long nap while I waited for 7am to come for them to start unloading. That was a load for Cosco of bottled water. 46,600 lbs worth. With is just about the limit I can carry on this truck. I really should of scaled it. Trucks can only have so much weight total (80,000 lbs) and it has to be distributed evenly. 12,000 front, 34,000 on the drives and 34,000 on the trailer. You adjust the weight by sliding the trailer tires forward or back. I took my best guess and took off. I did get pulled into a DOT check and they looked at it hard, but let me go so I must of been close. Tonight a have a Budweiser load going to SC pick-up at 10pm deliver at 8am the next morning. something like 300 miles. I haven't looked it up yet to figure that part out. All it is is running up I-95. I like running that road and it has been a long while. This load is going to max me out also, but they have scales right there and they don't let you leave unless you scale out, so no problems there.
