December was arguably the strongest month for freight in 2016. So even though we're now going through the typical seasonal slow-down for mid-January, rates are still higher than usual in some places for this time of year. Spot market volumes still look strong, but contract freight has been a little slow. That's means there are more trucks from big carriers available on the spot market, and the extra capacity pushed rates down on a lot of high-traffic lanes last week.

On my way home from work each day, driving on our new highway that cuts through the protected agriculture area in our little corner of the world, I will see scores, if not hundreds, of eagles and hawks sitting in the trees alongside the road. I remember thinking that we must have over, say, 250 bald eagles in our farming neighborhood. That is until the aviary expert from our local landfill, the person who actually studies these birds and tracks their numbers, said there were actually over 3,000!
