Merry christmas eve. well, t has called up his old employer and has agreed to come back = looks like we are on our way to denver again. today is his last day at usx. cleaning out the truck and going home. rest then start packing. shouldn't be too bad. sadly most of our stuff is still in boxes. guess we never felt at home here yet.

lunar eclipse

winter solstice and a lunar eclipse - cool
full eclipse viewing is at 2:35 am.. i was up for a quick peak. the moon was all hazy and red. shadow-like. i see why the natives would've seen it as a bad omen.

ducks...


ducks. there is a flock of about 20 here at this truck stop that t & i are stuck at. feeding them bread. it's stale but they don't seem to care. the company t drives for is leaving him sitting more and more. just waiting for loads they say. what ever suits them. me, i'd rather just start driving one direction or another.. just to get moving. maybe the freight will be better in another location.
no miles=no money. t wants to quit. his old boss called out of the blue a month ago. just wanted to see how we are doing. and if we ever decide to come back to his area, t is more than welcome to come back. well, it's looking like a great offer right now.
