California

Well, we are still in San Jose. It's been almost a week here including the 4th (without fireworks). It's very hot here. Some days hotter than others. Today is a milder one with temperatures in the high eighties. I think it was triple digits over the weekend. I wish we could get a load that takes us out of here. The landscape and freeways are becoming way too familiar. We have been doing some local runs that aren't paying too bad but not like a cross country run. I'm ready for a change of scenery.

We did have a little fun yesterday at lunchtime. We were across the street from the truckstop, eating at Wendy's (they have the most wonderful Berry Almond Chicken Salad) when we looked out the window and saw the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile pulling in. The drivers had stopped for lunch too. It seems they travel the Southwest doing promotionals and were just passing through. As we walked out with the drivers behind us I was able to snap a quick picture with my phone. It's really a pretty cool thing. Ron said he checked out the job once and discovered that the drivers must hold an associate's degree in business and public relations. Just to drive a weird looking vehicle?

Well, I feel like my brain is becoming stagnant with so little to do while waiting. This seems to be a rather slow week and I hope it picks up soon. Until next time . . . . . . . . .
