So just for grins pick up another load after San Fran and head back to the East Coast. LOL. Gotta love the miles though!

Scary yes. But I've had a CDL for 2 weeks so no worries!

New Driver experience

Started Saturday Feb 20th 2016. Drove from San Diego to Chelsea Mass with Trainer partner. Dropped off a load of oranges. Drove to Bordentown NJ empty through New York city over the George Washington Bridge. Picking up a load in the morning and heading to San Francisco. Seems like a good start. Plenty of miles anyway. And yes I almost had a heart attack driving through NYC with all the road construction!
