OK folks here we go first off let me start by explaining the title TTR. Now get your minds out of the gutter folks.TT It’s not a bodily function nor is it 2 parts of the female anatomy. It could stand 4 trucker trash but that may or may not apply to some of us. As far as the R well even I’m undecided. So therefore I just went with the initials TTR. Kinda like the classic rock band CCR. But there the R stood for revival. That sounds too religious to me. And if you’ve read my blog “Hippocracy on high”. You already know I’m anything but religious.
So this is what I came up with TTR. We are all familiar with the #truckertuesday on twitter. So since today is Tuesday I thought I’d start with that. Now as for the R. As I said I’m undecided. It could be reblog,retweet. Since this blog will contain both. It could mean remix nah scratch that this isn’t a song and I’m no DJ. Incidentally remix is also what Walmart calls the trucks that deliver basically everything on the grocery side of their store that doesn’t require temperature control. I know that cause I used 2 work there and unload them. But now I sometimes get to deliver them haha!
So what is it. Well I’ll leave it up to you to decide. To each his own
The direction I’ve decided to try for this blog is not an original idea. The web is full of people reblogging other peoples blogs. Twitter is overloaded with retweets and pics reposted. But it all works together for the greater good I think.
So anyway I thought if people like@Tachoblogcould get tribemembers,myself included, to send them photos to repost every week in what they call “View from the cab”#VFTC. And idownloadblog etc can repost others blogs or repost their links
So could I So here goes nothin:
We start with a new blog post from one of my twitter followers @toddmccann
This was as he said his first attempt to show us his more artsy side. I suggested to him that a pictures worth a thousand words and maybe this would keep him from being so dang long winded. However he assures me that plot will fail. A trucker visits carhengeis that blog post. Good short read with an accompanying video
@gypsyhooker also has a blogMy flavor of crazy
Todd also tweeted that mike the driverhas a blog as well
Admittedly I’ve not had time to read either of those yet but just trying to help spread the word
Now let’s get to the photo portion shall we….
My first inclination would be to include some of the works of@darkstaff
But he has been on a self imposed break from the socials. So not much to include from him as of late. But you can check out all his stuff on his about me page
I took this photo earlierand edited with my camera+ app on my iphone4s. It was taken at the second westbound rest area on I40 in California
@leftlanetruker shared this picturewith us on twitter
And my wife@tammy McFaddentook this awesome shot while she was driving this morning she said the cloud looked like a UFO
And here is her picture again with some of my
camera+ editing
