Successful Day in Massachusetts & New York

 The puppies are starting to warm up to us & to life in a big truck. They are also starting to understand the concept of their leashes. 
  Delivery went smoothly enough this morning, in Chicopee Massachusetts. The customer's property had too many trucks arriving to keep everyone out of the street. The lumpers charged us $60 to unload the load of paper towels. Schneider takes care of that, after I write an EFS check & scan in the receipt. 
  We took our time departing Massachusetts, as we were hoping to meet up with my cousin this morning. She had some work obligations & wasn't able to communicate with me in a timely manner. 
  The puppies enjoyed our frequent stops on our way to Canandaigua New York. There are lots of new things to sniff in the grassy areas of the tollway service areas. 
  Our customer didn't have a pre-loaded trailer ready for us when we arrived, so they directed us to back into a loading door with the empty trailer that we brought in. They got us loaded within 30 minutes while we allowed our puppies to play in their grass. 
   The scenery was stunning on our route by the Finger Lakes. The fall colors are really starting to pop. 
   My 70-hour DOT clock grinded down to 18 minutes by the time we were all done tonight. Bath, New York will be our home for the next 34 hours.
