WHERE'S WALDO (AKA: CRAIG)




It seems the first question I get asked these days is where's Craig. Keeping track of him has been described by some as tracking Santa Claus on Christmas Eve as he seems to be always on the go and never in one spot for too long.

This morning, as Craig described it, it was a balmy 36 degrees below zero, in Missoula, Montana. By the time he had reached Billings, Montana, it had warmed to a toasty 10 degrees. Quite a bit different from the weather we are use to in Northern California.

Craig's trainer is named Ken. He is 61 yrs old and has been driving truck for the past 20 years since retiring as a police officer. Craig and Ken seem to get along quite nicely, but then, I've yet to meet anyone who didn't get along with Craig.

One of the pictures posted above is the truck Craig is currently driving and the type he will be assigned once he is on his own. To get a better idea of what our living arrangements will be you can go to www.freightlinertrucks.com , click on trucks, then models, and check out the Century Class ST. Not too shabby with all the comforts of home.

As of this evening Craig was at a truck stop in Glendive, Montana, just west of the North Dakota border and on his way to Minnesota to pick up two pontoon boats. As always, keep checking back for "Where's Waldo aka: Craig"
