Theron, the adventure has begun, and how romantic that your very first journey will have you going out West!

I'm sure right now it feels to a certain degree that you don't exactly know what to expect, but you will get used to that. No matter how long a trucker has been driving, he never knows for certain exactly how his day will go.

Good luck, and try to focus and relax at the same time.

Thanks for all the support you guys! Currently in Wichita Fall, Tx headed to Amarillo, Tx. Should make it there about 11:40am, Where there will be a 1 hour layover. Guess I'll grab something to eat at that point. Man is it just me or is it hard as hell to get comfortable to sleep on a Greyhound 😩😩😩 my neck hurts in so many places! First best from Baton Rouge to Dallas had charge ports for your phone, the bus I got on in Dallas has ports but none of them work. That sucks lol but I change busses again at 9pm tonight in Denver, Colorado where I also have a 3 & a half hour Layover. Idk what I will be doing at that point. But everything is going good so far & im still in excited mode! 😁😁

Theron, there will be times when you just have to wait - at a shipper , or for your 30 minute break. Now's your chance to do nothing. At least you can now watch for the Rocky Mountains to grow on the horizon.

The customer who is shipping the freight. This is where the driver will pick up a load and then deliver it to the receiver or consignee.
