Delivery and a Pick Up in Canada

After our visit from the working girl in Toldeo, we eventually got a load picking up in Dowagiac, Michigan heading back up into London, Ontario. The drive over to the shipper was pretty uneventful but it was snowing pretty good which kept us on our toes.

I can't believe we were already heading back up to Canada. One of the reasons we wanted to do this job was to travel and see places we wouldn't normally get to see, so I guess I shouldn't complain about going back to Canada. I'm getting what I wished for.

The delivery site was a little tricky to find due to some one way streets and some incorrect directions provided by our carrier but we finally found our way there and got unloaded. This time we decided to wait for a load in Canada and see what happened instead of deadheading back out.

It worked and we got a load picking up in Orangeville, Ontario. The shipper that we picked up from quite frankly looked like a junk yard. A small one at that. We had so much fun getting our truck in there and weaving around through the junk that was laying everywhere. John's biggest concern was that we would run over something that would damage one of the tires. We don't need those headaches. In the end, we got in there, got loaded and got out of there.

After we came back out. Yuck!


Again, it was snowing, but it is still winter so I guess that's to be expected. Can't wait for spring!

We are headed to Middleton, Tennessee for delivery.
