      Yes. A lot of pros…but we got uncomfortable with the level of violent crime. 😢 Sad but true. A big reason we left. Plus…we were ready for a new adventure! And, boy did we get that! 😆😆😆

I know Kevin has been thru a lot and a few good and bad companies (as we all hve), So I respect his time behind the wheel and both your chit chat on the road!!! Thanks

    You guys be careful. We picked up in Devens, Massachusetts and are taking our 34 and then we are headed to Council Bluffs, Iowa, and then to Crete City, Nebraska, to pick up to go back to Alabama for home time! The rest will be nice after spending 1.5 hours to go 2 miles to get on 84 outside of Boston. 🤦‍♀️
