One to Please

Consider myself to be told off,Ladypen told me she was bored of looking at the truck pictures and to stop being idle and do some more on here, so as one does as the boss says ive stopped for a couple of hours here at the Flying J in Napanee Ontario just to please.The age old layover problem reared its head again on my last trip so after a little stand off, me taking 4 days  off we duly accepted a trip down to Oxford Pennsylvania.Off we headed to Inkerman in North East New Brunswick for a load of Peat Moss on Friday Dinnertime,these loads suit me they all have weigh bridges on site so your all legal before leaving site and most of the places the guys are pretty nice,unfortunately due to the rain they had
its was like a quagmire.So off we headed down route 8 towards Fredricton then back on the Trans Canadian for Woodstock entering the USA at Houlton, after sorting out my ACE (someone had forgot to include the The Fresh Prince on It)we headed for Bangor Mall for a little retail theraphy, well christmas is coming and i know certain people are expecting things (not saying there going to get them LOL).Our delivery wasn't until monday morning so no rush down through New Jersey making a nice early finish at Carneys Point with another Driver, leaving me 30 min away from my delivery point.All went well and we even had a reload within 30 mins a load out of Phillidelphia for St Georges New Brunswick.The place i was picking up was on the Airport and even with 2 sat navs going i still managed to end up in the terminal area,so just to let you know you can get a truck inside Philly Airport because i did it,bloody sat navs i should of known better, i eventually found where i wanted to be, and there was one of our newest recruits from the place where men are men and sheep are nervous.7 hours later we were both loaded and heading North,our entry back into Canada was via St Stephen the route from Bangor upto the border is extremely scenic and very easy to tackle when your load weighs about 3 ton.Its funny how things turn out, i get a message about 3 hours away from my destination dont worry what time we get there they will tip me as they work 24/7, unfortunately this seem to be empty words when we arrived there no one knew we were coming. An hour later we were told that the welsh wizards cousin is actually in the wrong place he should be in Charlottetown PEI, only 5 hours way Derrrr a breakdown in communiction me thinks.And yes i was tipped some 16 hours later,then hit with THE FISH RUN yet again yipeeeee
