I've been busy with visiting guests and have not been on this forum for nearly a week, so this was a nice Monday morning surprise!

Welcome to all the other new cruisers also!

My husband and I drive a big red truck nationwide, mostly air freight, anything you would ship FedEx, UPS, etc we haul it. He drives nights, me days, our truck usually only stops moving for showers, potty breaks and exercise, well and grocery stops.
We drive anywhere between 4500 and 7000 miles a week. I haven't been home since January and I'm getting cranky! But frieght is SLOW and we have to make money to fund our sick Disney addiction.
So we travel for work and fun I guess. There would be no fun without the work. That's why when I post its always from a different place. Its a wacky job sometimes but we enjoy it.

Scott we sunk a whole 11 bucks. Could have just rode down the road and threw 1s out the window. Good luck to you and Lynn on 1/2! Kevin and I are still running, I am battling shin splints and a bum knee.

Easter dinner for us was cooked by yours truly in the truck. We had Red beans and rice, a heap of steam brocolli, and blackeyed peas.
As soon as we get to LA we have to brave the grocery store. I will try to resist the urge to buy 1/2 off Peeps and Cadbury Eggs LOL

Cool! I don't know how you do it!! DH and I have made 3 driving trips from FL to AL with moving trucks and I'm so glad we are done!!! Two times I drove by myself in one of our trucks, and DH drove Moving truck. This last time we flew into FL, and rode together in the moving truck...much better...but driving/riding makes me sleepy!

It will be fun keeping up with your travels!!

PrettyinTink: Wow, a woman who drives a big rig....I am impressed! I didn't learn how to drive until I was in my 30's when I left NYC. Sometimes I can barely park my SUV! You rock, girl!

But, She can get you around the NYC subway like no tomorrow!!!!

Peter did you say Earl? I love me some Earl! Kevin is addicted to the albacore tuna melt and I LOVE the tomato soup. The croutons are YUMMO. Plus where else can you get a bowl of tomato soup for 1.95?
(unless you get it for free at Scott and Lynns)

Thanks for the sweet comments. I enjoy driving, I have seen some amazing things. Its not much different from driving a car because its all automatic. Just push drive and go. I can park really well but I don't dare back this big beast up to something! I leave that to the hubby.

We are currently in Kingman Arizona heading to Kansas City, Missouri.
We stopped in Lake Havasu, Arizona and went on a trail walk with our little doggy. He is a 3lb chihuahua so he was pooped in about 20 minutes. We had to carry him back to the truck, poor little thing gets so tired so fast.

Hope everyone is having a great day! Its a beautiful 75 degrees and sunny where I am.

Peter KEWL BEaNS Good Luck with DVC, Wasn't sure if your plan was public.

Will see ay there, this time we haveto at least see Jenn, LOL

The Bummer of the Minnie is that for us guys who register, the race shirt is only in girl sizes, so Lynn gets two race shirts.

The Minnie is slow to fill.

Next thing is you will be doing ther TOT. These races are as addictive as cruises.

[jeanneg]

Yay! Jenn is doing the Minnie! Knowing Peter will be cheering us on at the finish line is great news!

We're at OKW along with Nancy and Norm.....also my daughter, Jenni and her Greek Where are Scott and Lynn staying?

It's going to be a par-tee!
