Additional Notes: The specified delivery appointment was scheduled for 6am… Unfortunately, nobody showed up until 8am. This accounted for an unnecessary delay on a day Steve could have slept-in for two hours longer.
Additional Notes: Original destination of the trailer to Modesto California was changed and given to a different driver because of a remaining hour shortage.

Additional Notes: Steve was running up against the 70 hour clock throughout this trip. As always, Steve was able to make the delivery safely and made a scenic trip through North Dakota for the first time in awhile. Additionally, Steve took time from his busy schedule to meet up with two gentlemen in Butte Montana, our very own MT406, a BRT moderator and Jim Burg, another Road crew member along with his dog Finn. Steve also met up with another BRT moderator, Chris Bandini in St. Cloud Minnesota. Thanks for coming out to visit with Big Rig Steve guys!
Additional Notes: Trailer was dropped in Sumner and delivered to Everett by a different driver because Steve needed to arrive at his next pick-up location in Lynden on 4/11 not 4/12. The previous load had been changed to Friday 04/12. This would have caused Steve to sit for an additional day for nothing.
Additional Notes: Receiver made Steve wait for six hours even after he maintained a tight deadline and drove through the night to make the delivery as scheduled.
