Home again!

I deadheaded home from Ogden, UT on Saturday.  After taking a brief detour to ditch my trailer in Greeley, it ended up being just over 500 miles.

Normally I don't like deadheading home, but I have stuff that I have to get done here this week and my options for getting here were limited due to a weekend delivery.  I could have taken a load from Salt Lake City to Sparks, NV for a Monday morning delivery, but that wasn't acceptable.  I also could have waited until Monday for a load heading home, but again, I needed to be home.

Such is the fun of being a trucker, and more so being an independent contractor.  I'll end up being $300 or so in the hole this week.  Oh well.
