What a week! My first as a rookie pro truck driver which brought me to Chicago and back home for one night before packing up again and heading for Pittsburgh with a load of zinc then picking up 40,000 lbs of magnesium in close by Midland PA. I clocked 6000 kilometres in my first week (4,000 miles. Thanks to all that followed and commented on my posts. It was an honour to share these exciting moments with the fine members of the OF community. A few pics to close off the week... Picking up 20 tons of pure zinc for a Pittsburgh steel mill On our way. Crossing the Thousand Island bridge at Alexandria Bay The industrial heartland. Ohio river valley near Midland PA. We've encountered the foulest weather on our way back between Erie and Watertown NY due to Lake Ontario effect snow squalls. These delayed us by 6 hours. Finally...time to relax! Cheers to all!
