Just started a new job hauling crushed cars..It's not as easy as I had thought. I haul cubed cars from junkyards around the Northeast back to a terminal. The job itself is awesome..They have sweet trucks that are in good shape..The hours are long but it's good to be back in the truck again..It's like riding a bike.

Just figured that I would share..I'm actually really excited to have this new challenge in my life. However..When will I explore? ..The junkyards I've been to actually have some really awesome stuff..However I don't see me bringing my camera along anytime soon.

One of the things that suck about trucking. You get too see so much but can't share it all.

Pick yourself up one of these...

One of these or something comparable instead of bringing your expensive camera anywhere.

I usually carry that or a relatively cheap Kodak Zi8 video/still camera. Lately it's both. Since the Kodak is about the same size as a cellphone and about the same price to replace if I lose it.

The cell is cheap to replace really.

Examples of some photos I took recently...

Let me know if you can see those. The really nice clear ones came from the new phone.

The pictures are actually pretty clear from your phone.. I recently actually thought about doing some filming while at work..Lots of OTR drivers have been keeping Vlogs about their trips/lives..or just to show off their truck. It's not a bad idea..I have an old hand held I can set on my tripod..If I end up doing it I will post a video or something...For now Im just focused on the job itself.
