BALTIMORE BOUND






Craig and his trainer left Pharr, Texas early Wednesday morning headed for Baltimore. Craig checked in with me around 10pm our time and they had made it to Meridian, Mississippi just west of the Alabama border. They were going to drive a few more hours then rest and sleep for awhile. At around 9am Thursday morning, Craig checked back in with an updated location of Bristol, Tennessee, right on the border of the state of Virginia. They plan on being in Baltimore, Maryland by this evening. Now that is some time travel. It is hard for me to imagine traveling that far of a distance in that short amount of time. When you look at the map posted you can see just how far Craig has traveled in the past three weeks. Quite amazing!

Their trailer is loaded with six Bayliner boats destined to go over seas to Amsterdam in cargo containers out of Baltimore. They will learn when and where their next load is first thing Friday morning, as they need to get loaded before the weekend.

Craig reports that after all the years of waiting for this to happen it finally has. Every day is a Saturday and time has no meaning. When talking to him I have to remind him what day it is, and the only time he needs to be concerned about is when to drop off or pick up a load.

The pictures posted are of a Texas oil well, Lake Charles in Louisiana, the rolling hills of Tennessee, and a rest stop in Virginia. He said he had a very beautiful trip through the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.
