Cleveland

Good morning from downtown Cleveland, Ohio! We are at our first delivery this morning waiting on a door. Man, this is going to be a rough start! Where I am going is inside a very old building that can barely fit a short truck much less a long truck! Poles everywhere and skinny docks! Sure hope I can pull this one off. It is dumb to expect today’s full size trucks to get into buildings and docks built when trucks were only 1/3 this size! We have three deliveries to day and 300+ miles to drive to the next two once we get done here… We will just have to see how things workout. OK, I just backed into our dock! On wow, not fun at all! It took several tries and numerous backup a foot then get out and evaluate then backup another foot, etc. No matter, we got it done and we were only one inch off from being perfectly aligned! Yes, I AM proud of myself… Just to give you an idea of what I had to work with…backing in from across the street, hoping traffic stops for me then avoiding all the poles! Right now my tractor nose is less than a foot in front of me dead center, and we are fully backed into the dock! View is from my drivers window!
