North Florida, Kenneth Davis

(Florida)
I used to drive full time OTR, but now have a few rental properties (once all foreclosed basket case fixer uppers, that I rebuilt with little outside help) I own and manage.
The rental properties almost sustain me without having to work for anyone, but during times of vacancies I see that some Part-time trucking would fit the bill and allow me to build a small cushion for these times.
I'm kinda a roughneck Macgyver type living on the very cheap from the old paid off 1980s pickup I drive to the years old shoes I wear until they sustain enough ware to warrant new replacement; "we are talking toe holes present, soles worn off!"
I enjoy my freedom to farm in my spare time as well with a few head of cattle for slaughter beef. No thanks to anyone but my strong will to survive my way almost independent at age 43.
