Well, I have tried both sides of the delivery place. Neither side has an empty trailer for me to drag down to San Antonio with me.

Getting with dispatch to see what they want me to do. I highly doubt they will allow me to bobtail all the way to SA!

Yes, I did have a slight issue backing up to the dock this time. LOL. Sometimes I "got it" sometimes I don't. LOL Oh well.

The two things I have above the drivers side post the top is my Garmin Street Pilot 2610, an older GPS I have had for years. I do not use it for directions, but just a "rolling Atlas".

The one below that is the XM Radio.

What I did to disable the window switches so TK can't roll them down is to stuff my shoe in the hole above the door and switches. I have to cram it in there, but if she walks on it she won't hit the switches. She can't budget the shoe out of place either! :) Not yet anyway. LOL

I get all the questions so far?

Good morning, all. I'm up. I see we are headed out. Headed to San Antonio? It looks so green there!

Boy, Steve, is moving today! He must not be pulling a trailer.

ualady said...

The dogwoods are in full bloom here SAHmom. And the yard mowing has started already!

ualady said...

Right now he is without a trailer.

Anonymous said...

Wow. I'd love to see the dogwoods. No dogwoods here.

ualady said...

I'll see if I can find my camera and take a couple of pics for you. It's going to be in the 70s again today.

ualady said...

Don't know if they have dogwoods in SA. That may just be a deep South thang. Maybe BRS will pass through the deep South again in the next couple of weeks and he can take some pics.

ualady said...

Ah we're still looking for a trailer!

getyurmotorunnin said...

Looks like they sent him on a wild goose chase.

Peggy said...

ualady said...

getyurmotorunnin said...

Steve...

Thanks for the answer Steve. I was going to ask you when you first told us about it but we got off on other topics and I didn't want to interrupt.

Just curious, was that a railroad siding or railyard next to where you picked the trailer up from?

Peggy said...

Nowwwwwwwwww are we on vacation?????

The Duke Of Earl. said...

getyurmotorunnin said...

Peggy said...

Hi Steve thamks for the wave

ualady said...

Well I missed the wave again!

ualady said...

Hey motor ... how far to Burleson?

Anonymous said...

Another wave.... LOL...

I've missed every one of them.

Steve can I bother you to TAPE a wave with both you and TK in it?

I have got to be one of the most unlucky watchers you have!!

Better yet... tape one with you, TK and your Mom and Dad (if they are willing)

I promise I'll never ask another favor (today). ;)

Peggy said...

Oh no!!!! It was a quick one as he was walking by.

Peggy said...

In the mural gallery, is that a picture of your mom?

Peggy said...

I think we are now Southward bound.

getyurmotorunnin said...

Terri said...

Steve, I just hope you have a GREAT vacation, even tho you have to see the dentist. See you on your next run.

God Bless You and Miss TK

jilli said...

Hi everybody; I'm a little late checking in but it is only 6:00am here after all! Beautiful sunset yesterday Steve... had to watch it twice; once to watch the sky and once to catch all the activity at the truckstop(busy place!)..and will no doubt watch it again! Have a great Sunday everyone; catch you later. :-)

ualady said...

getyurmotorunnin said...

Yep, drove by him in the bike, waved at you guys when I got in front of him.

Hello everyone addicted to this site--ha ha--Steve's mom here, after church & after lunch.
Steve probably hasn't had time to see the murals gallery. Yes, that is me in the red shirt (but I've since managed to walk off a few pounds).
The pretty girl with dark hair is a young friend from church who had rather paint than eat & she sometimes goes along to help on a paint job. She is a good artist. It is double fun for me when she is able to go with me. --Texas Lady

My daughter told me there is a rodeo in Austin this weekend. Maybe everyone is heading to that. Lot's of traffic today. Drive safe Steve and TK.

getyurmotorunnin said...

Love the murals, did you do them all? There really cool. I live close to Cleburne, where is the one in Cleburne and I will run bythere sometime and take a real look at it?

ualady said...

OK...motor...then I saw you!!!! Couldn't tell if the bike was red or black on the screen. Did BRS honk his horn?

ualady said...

Texas Lady - my Mom sent BRS a message to behave and mind you while he's home. I mind my mom and sent the message along. My mom is 80.

Thanks Steve for answers to devices on door post. They looked interesting and I knew they had some use.
I enjoyed you telling us what you had to eat. There is more variety than I ever imagined.

getyurmotorunnin said...

Bike is red and Im glad he didnt honk, there was a lot of traffic and the car in front of him was going slow. Would have scared them to death.

Peggy said...

Texas Lady, Those are wonderful and you have great talent. Beautiful and thank you for sharing with us.

Peggy said...

TK must be hurngry???? Whats for lunch???

BigRigSteve said...

yup, I would have honked, but with all the traffic, I just flashed my lights instead.

BigRigSteve said...

new post up

Hi, getyurmotorunnin You asked did I do all the murals? NO!
Only from the point it says "in a private home". Certainly not all those murals you see in the entire gallery. I haven't lived that long yet! ha.
uslady -- thank to your mom for instructing Steve to "mind me". He does. Tell your mother thanks for thinking of us.
Someone else asked about dogwoods in south Texas. We have a few around. I've seen them in Bastrop State Park, about 75 mile north of us. In Texas we are used to distance, that's called near. --Texas Lady
