Yesterday was our 3rd anniversary. Time certainly has a way of flying. We celebrated in Denver with dinner at an authentic German restaurant enjoying weiner schnitzel, sauerbraten, spaetzle, red cabbage, potato soup, finishing it all off with German cheesecake and Apple Streusel cheesecake. Fabulous food and atmosphere. After dinner we stopped at Walmart (our social club) to restock the truck and walk off all that good food. To make the evening wonderful my romantic husband booked a motel room for us to give us an evening OFF the truck for a while. We've been out for a month and are not planning to be home until the second week of August. Needless to say, he scored all A's in my book!
In my last post I mentioned I got a new laptop and a kindleFire for my birthday. The laptop came with Windows 8 and I'm beginning to get the hang of it. Things are so different with this one. To top it all off, AT&T has revamped their email this week. I think it may be a good change but I'm not too fond of change. I am having fun with the kindle. So far I'm only playing games and checking my email on it. I still have about a dozen more books to read before I need to start downloading them. Last week Ron upgraded his phone to his first smartphone (I don't have one of those--yet!) and our data usage has gone through the roof. So now we have had to change our Verizon plan to accommodate all the technology. I think we've planned far enough into the future because before summer is over my phone is eligible for an upgrade.
I'm not sure how long we'll be in Denver. We first arrived on Tuesday night with a load to deliver Wednesday afternoon. Now it's Thursday night and we have had only 1 load offer that we did not get. There happens to be about 4 other trucks like ours waiting in Denver for loads out. Hopefully we have been here the longest and can have priority in getting a load. I think it will be a while before we come back to Denver. It just takes way too long to get something out of here. As beautiful as it is here it gets a little old in this truck. We are not close to the wildfire but last night we did have smoke, haze and fire smells in the air. I don't want to be any closer!
That's about it for this time so---until next time . . . . . . . . . .
