First one down...

and many more to go.  Our first run as a team is now complete.  It went pretty good really.  On time without having to PUSH it.  Hit some nasty weather, but took things slow and easy when needed... and up some hills - LOL! The only oops was a chunk of ice or something hitting the windsheild and putting a crack in it... its not in the line of vision, so for right now we are just watching it closely, and it will get fixed when we get back up to UT.  The load we have now is HEAVY!!  With it and the tractor we are about 79220... max is 80K - so needless to say the hills will be REALLY slow - LOL! Gary doing the morning shift and me the evening shift is working out pretty good so far - so I will be taking a nap soon - then driving until I get tired.  Wake Gary up - he helps me park - then we sleep for a few hours with the truck not moving - then Gary gets up and starts the day.  The back is getting arrainged... but the big power inverter isn't available - sigh - we think the battery its hooked up to is bad.  The little inverter though is enough to run the refrig, and we have the little cooker (used it the first time last night - works GREAT)... toninght it will have pork chops (left overs) reheated over roasted veggies :) can't wait to see how THOSE turn out... well off to take my nap... bye for now from Virginia in route to Utah...
