What fun to have our grandson Josiah here for the weekend. I am sure his parents noticed the pictures that included him at our church picnic. 🙂

He is an over-the-road trucker – based out of North Dakota – and had been on the road since mid-July.

We text and talk on the phone now and then, but that is not quite like seeing him.

He asked his dispatcher if he could get a load to the east so he could stop in with us to check on his mail and get supplies from his storage space. He did it.

Then he asked, “Can you get me a load to Maine so I can visit my parents?” The dispatcher wasn’t sure about that, but in less than half an hour found a load from Baltimore to Wells, Maine! He told Josiah to spend a few days with his parents and call when he was ready to get back on the road.

The next time I talked to him, he was in New York picking up a load for Alabama.

Methinks he is enjoying his job as he was ready to get back on the road after spending a few days with us, and again after being at home in Maine.
