So… how did you spend your weekend?

[pnaiorr]

Middle Of Nowhere, Utah… yup, it's an actual place. Actually it's pretty close to Brigham City, about 30 minutes north of Ogden. I guess my next stop will be the Point Of No Return, Florida - or Nogales, Arizona. Yeah, that's it, we're heading to Nogales. Tomorrow is another day and another several hundred miles. Good night y'all, the search for more interesting images will continue tomorrow. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #trucker #trucking #truckstop #truckinglife #flatbed #travel #traveling #utah #brighamcity #trecking #rolling #road #ontheroad (at Middle Of Nowhere Utah)

Heaven isn’t far away. Sometimes it’s just two wheels, perfect weather, and an open road. In this case heaven was a little cooler on a #harleydavidson #crusing #route66 in #california. • • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2018) #lifeisgood #motorcycle #openroad #californiadreaming #countryliving #travel #biker #motorcyclelife #motorcycletouring #ride (at U.S. Route 66) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqTmzJ4FjeH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5msev9brkka8

The Truckers Blues: • Blowing out a tire is never fun. Blowing a trailer tire under 80k pounds on the I-5 in California if down right dangerous. Such is life. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #truck #trucker #trailer #travel #ontheroad #truckinglife #truckin #flatbed #roadhazard #tire #blowout (at Buttonwillow, California)

Settling in for the night: • There's an interesting phenomenon that occurs at the truck stop every evening just around sunset; the trucks come home to roost. Fuel islands fill up, wayward giants start streaming and start jockeying for position to stable up for the night. If you ever want to know just how many lonely men and women there are patrolling the freeways at any given moment, just stop off at you local truck stop and then multiple the trucks you see there by a magnitude of hundreds of thousands. Everything in your home, in the store, in you town likely came there on the backs of one of these freeway behemoths. • Goodnight everyone and Shabbat Shalom • • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #california #flatbed #truckinglife #travel #truck #trucker #industry (at Corning, California)

Team Lift: • How do you get a tractor off a trailer without a ramp? Simple, take two heavy duty forklifts and team lift, then simply driver the trailer out from under it. • Next stop Portland, Oregon. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #tractor #trailer #forklift #trucking #truck #trucker #truckinglife #flatbed #phoenix #arizona (at Phoenix, Arizona)

Somewhere in Texas: • Driving down the I-20 somewhere around Toyah, TX I found this little play on the side of the road. It was a good place to stop and stretch the old legs after several hundred miles riding down from Missouri. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #texas #dontmesswithtexas #i20 #trucking #driving #traveling #mygrind (at Toyah, Texas)

Chain it down: • Hauling tons of metal requires some heavy duty chains. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #chain #hauling #heavymetal #flatbed #trucking #overtheroad #otr #mygrind #work (at Albuquerque, New Mexico)

The Aftermath: • The remains of a semi-tractor after a fuel tank fire 🔥 completely engulfed the cabin. It's not a pretty sight and thankfully no one was injured. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #trucking #fire #truck #semi #firedamage #totalloss #mygrind #overtheroad #otr #travelphotography #ontheroad (at Albuquerque, New Mexico)

Now that's Heavy Metal 🤘 • Moving 40 ton of rolled steel is no joke. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #trucker #trucking #ontheroadagain #traveling #hauling #mygrind #steel #heavymetal (at Pittsburg, California)

Breakfast of Champions • Sometimes you take your meals where you can get them. Dropping a load of roofing supplies off in San Francisco, California early one morning the food truck pulled up just intime for a quick nosh. Beggars can't be choosers, and honestly not a bad breakfast sandwich, though the instant coffee left a bit to be desired. • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • #trucking #truckinglife #trucker #ontheroad #traveling #foodtruck #foodcart #california #sanfrancisco (at San Francisco, Panama, Panama)

And so begins a new chapter and a new journey. • Hey y'all… sorry I've been away for a while. I have been training for a new project. • For the next several months (13 or so) I will be traveling America's trucking lanes, exploring and documenting the lives and work of the drivers and those that support the industry. • This photo for instance is an example of what happens when you find that you are over loaded and over weight after the shipper has already closed. • Tow truck driver chaining up 3000 lbs of steel, so it can be repositioned on the flatbed trailer to adjust the weight. It took the tow, for men and some heavy duty straps and chain to relocate a total of 3 tons of steel on the bed of that truck. All done under a Southwestern Texas sunset. • • • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2017) • • • #texas #towtruck #trucking #mygrind #transportation #flatbed #work #ontheroad #travel #shipping #trucker (at Balmorhea, Texas)

Home sweet home: finally back in Arizona and looking forward to taking some much needed time off to enjoy the amazing Arizona weather and take advantage of some of the great hiking available right here in The Valley. We will be on a brief hiatus while we settle back into our home city and reorganize. • • www.pnaiorr.com Find me on FB/IG/Twitter/500px/Flickr/Tumblr @PnaiOrr All images are the property of P'naiOrr™ Photography. ©NGA (2006-2016) • • #homesweethome #arizona #phoenix (at Phoenix, Arizona)
