Hi Everyone,
I decided to start blogging about our travels, mostly, and anything else I feel the need to share.
My sister-in-law came over from England to visit and she wrote a blog of her trip. It was really entertaining and a good way to keep a diary (of sorts) forever.
I will also be sharing interesting stuff about Jes. For those that don't know already, she is a Sophomore at Missouri State University, in Springfield, MO. She hasn't decided on a major yet, but is leaning towards Media Studies, with "lots of minors". She is doing a fabulous job of staying out of debt, so far. She has 3 good scholarships, one of which pays all of her tuition for up to 5 years. The other 2 are on a one year basis. As you can tell, I think she is FABULOUS!
John and I are over the road team drivers for Witte Bros, Troy, MO. The company goes to all the continental states. We drive a 2009 Peterbilt with 150,000 miles. I have been driving for 7 months, and John has been a truck driver for almost 8 years. Some days are REALLY long, some are easy and rest full.
Today we are in Lodi, CA. It is a perfect day today. Not a cloud in the sky and temp around 75. The truck stop is across the street from a field of grapevines. Beautiful. We have a delivery in the morning in Sacramento, CA and then head to Sparks, NV for a delivery tomorrow night. We will probably head to Sonoma, CA from there to pick up a load of wine and take it back to Troy. I was really excited the first time I got to go to Napa Valley, but all we got to see was what I call the working man's view. We get to see a lot of the country, but it is usually the warehouse districts. No sightseeing, or visiting good restraunts, museums, tourist spots.
We will see how this blogging thing turns out.
