Question: Peter, I have room on this haul for the ballon, however, we will be returning to WA in about 2 weeks. The problem is, we may not leave WA by the eastern route, but may go south through California, and then we would miss your haul. Is the prvious owner for sure he wants this back? If so I would be willing to haul it this load and store it for you/him in Atlanta (where we are based) and deliver it at a later date as we are always going to Florida wevery week. Let me know how best we can help you. Thanks, Roger at Swift Transport (2/1/2008)
