We left the TA truckstop in Rogers MN after lunch on Sunday. We traveled up to Duluth MN to a place right on Lake Superior. Gracie loved it up there they still had snow and it was cold. I took some pics of the ships on the lake where we loaded. We loaded steel balls that are in 55 gal drums. The balls go to cement companies and used to grind the rocks into the powder to make the cement. The balls come in all sizes. 1" on up to 3" or more.
The pic of Gracie was back in KC last week somehow I didn't get in in with the other pics.
Thes ship is 2 views of a steel barge. Same ship 2 views. This was on Monday. We left Duluth early Monday morning. There was a winter storm that hit there the next day. That was close! This load headed to Louisville KY. We stopped off at Mercertown in the middle of the night and stopped by the drivers lounge and took showers then headed on to the receiver to unload.
Tue: We unloaded our steel balls and then reloaded used steel balls and took them on to Cornersville, TN. We unloaded Tue. afternoon and are setting nearby at a TS. (truckstop) Yea that was Tue and today is Thur......lol such is trucking....
