7 am.  People are starting to show up here for work.  Time to get loaded and get back on the road.  One truck driver went to a truck stop because he showed up Saturday and no one was here.  Had to wait until today.  One other couple was here yesterday.   Somebody got their wires crossed somewhere.  

It’s a gorgeous day in the cabbage patch.

Here is that big fork lift in action.  

  
Wonder if this little guy has an inferiority complex.

  
Apparently all the cabbages are picked by hand.  (Sorry the window is dirty.  Greg just washed the windshield and all the water came back just as I was taking the picture. Haha)

  
The part of Florida we are in is all farms, cattle and horses.  Lots and lots of wide open space.   We’ve gone by farms for sale of 3,600 acres and 5,385 acres.   Wow!  

This big guy had the field all to himself.   The picture may not show it but he was Huge!

Prairie Bound Horse Farm 

February in Florida means orange picking time.  

Desert Inn and Bar.   Saw this place yesterday when we came by to go to the Pilot truck stop and read the history on it.  Pretty interesting.   It’s haunted and apparently the ghosts move the furniture around.

Back when we lived in Orlando many moons ago I used to work for the Blood Mobiles and we traveled all over.  Places like this is usually where you saw the snakes and alligators.    None today daggone it. 

8:30.  Made it to Morrow, Georgia at the KLLM terminal expecting to park for the night because our drop off appointment isn’t until tomorrow but was told by dispatcher here that we can go on over.  So, taking a little break and will go over to Fresh Express and see if we can deliver early.  

9:15 pm. Back at the terminal after dropping our trailer.  Now we see what they have for us in the morning.  

9:30.  Trying to find a parking spot and ended up stuck.  Looks like it’s been raining here pretty hard and the lot is a mess.   Greg went to pull in to a spot and started sliding in the mud.  Got stuck.  Trying rocking the truck back and forth but couldn’t get it out.  Nasty mess.   One of the guys from the shop came with another truck to help pull him out. 

DG:  And it’s still raining. Seems like every time we come here it is either raining or just finished raining.  If there was ever a lot in need of paving it is this one. 

  
They have a scale at Cabbage Inc and they have you scale before and after loading. This is my weight empty. Tractor and trailer. The bill of lading said I had 41035 pounds of cabbage, including boxes and pallets. My gross weight after that was 77860, so either their scale is off or they didn’t put the correct weight on the BOL. Either way I wasn’t over gross and that’s what we look for. All is good. And we delivered a day ahead of schedule, which isn’t always good if your looking to get right back on the road. Somehow it seems to mess up the planners if you are too efficient. 

Sounds like the rain has stopped. Should be cool enough tonight we will not need the air conditioning.  

That’s all for me. Really tired today. Good night and God bless.
