The Leaking Trailer!

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

I had a load of sulfuric acid from Altivia in Houston to Riverside Commodities in Evadale, TX.today.  I had  Waldo Ray, a student driver, with me today. There was a small accident on I-10 at Cheek, TX, but it wasn't too bad. I found the customer alright, a small dirty place. All of the un-loaders could not speak any English, illegals I presume. Luckily Waldo had been a Mormon missionary in Central America and had an BA in Spanish. He did the talking to them. We talked about the Mormon faith all day.



While we were off loading an old cab-over snub nose pulling an even older trailer backed in next to us. A young kid driving it. They hooked him up and put some air to his trailer and product started to pour down from it! His trailer had a leak when he arrived and the air pressure caused it to leak even more. They all scrambled to contain the leak then they got a pump and pumped it out. Some good drama and entertainment! They pumped it out okay.



After unloading I took Waldo to Chucks, a good BBQ joint there in Evadale. Good food! I always like to treat my students out for lunch.
