My Father and Mother are both from Eastern,Kentucky a place in Floyd County, Called Maytown, . My father was in the Army and retired back in the 70s. We would often go up to the hills and visit relatives and most of my uncles were coal miner's. and one of them was a truck driver he hauled coal and as a young kid he would alway's take me with him in the coal truck and I thought that was the greatest thing in the world, and I had a dream of being a truck driver. and I followed the dream and here I am years later Stuck in a Rolling prison, sitting in a service plaza in NY.. doing my time.. LOL.. Most people have no idea what trucking is all about , They think that you get out and see the world, We do see alot of the interstate system.. But we also see the bad side of the world and in most places we are treated like the scum of the earth.. Recently out in OK City they had a tornado warning, one had been sighted and this driver was at a Jelly plant and everybody started heading for shelter. He asked the security gaurd if he could go with them. the Gaurd told him to stay in his truck luckly the tornado missed the area, or the driver would have probably been hurt real bad or killed..... Sorry this was so long..Tom
