It started when I was young, about 6 or 7. On a family trip. There was a truck show where we were vacationing and I begged my grandparents to take me to it. I was amazed at the size of the trucks and what did all those switches do? As I grew older, I met some people in my town (Clarksville, TN) who were part of a CB radio group and quickly learned everything about it and when I got my 1st car, I installed a CB. I have never went without one since. Around that time I had gotten a job in Nashville, TN. I could either drive or ride a bus. When I got grounded, I had to take the bus, which I hated, cause I loved to drive. When I rode the bus, I would daydream of me driving "Big Trucks". Once I moved out on my own, I kinda put that dream on hold for a while... I was "trying to find myself". Well, needless to say, I found myself several times over, and not in a good way. When I finnally came to my senses, I remembered my dream and now I'm living it and never want to stop. I love traveling and meeting all kinds of different people and seeing all the beauty God created over this land. I wouldn't have it any other way!
