4th of July

We celebrated the 4th at Midway Community Center, listing to a pretty good band out of Nashville and had some home made ice cream. We had gone to Center Hill Lake earlier; got sun burned, and I cooked ribs on the grill. It was a very good day. We are going to the Fiddlers Jamboree this evening. It is in Smithville, Tennessee. It started in 1972 by Joe L Evins, the Tennessee congressman from Smithville. I was living in Smithville at the time, spending most of my time on the lake with friends. This is a very beautiful area and Smithville is a great place to live. A lot of people from the Nashville area have homes here on the lake. http://www.smithvilletn.com/jamboree/history.htm

We have a load assignment from Nashville to Laredo, Texas. We pick up Monday at 08:30 and delivery in Laredo at12:00 Wednesday. We have been home for a week. I am glad to get the assignment so that I know what to plan. It is a pain to wait not knowing when you are going to leave. Now I can enjoy the rest of the time I have home. I didn’t expect to picking up today. Who has anything that needs shipped the Saturday after the 4th of July? I have been home longer that I expected or wanted to be but I have enjoyed it.
