Experienced driver's background

" Honey,pack up the Country Squire. Were going to a car show!" I was 7 years old living in Jacksonville,FL laying in bed wondering if dad was going to take the family to the beach. I heard those words "car show" outside my door and jumped out of bed! I picked up my blue plastic toy mustang with all the cool police markings and lights and pushed it down the hallway....ZOOOOM! Unfortunately, my dads foot accidentally found the top of my Mustang crushing it like Godzilla in Tokyo! UGHHHH!! Luckily, the damage was slight and dad was wearing sneakers! "We will fix it when we get back from the car show son." We all loaded up the Squire and headed to the show. As we were driving into the parking lot, I saw my future! Cars being unloaded from BIG TRUCKS! I was as excited as a 7 year old could be! Those cool cars inside the show had to wait! It wasnt until I became 17 the first time I drove a big truck. The family moved to Atlanta in 1972 from Jacksonville because my father accepted a job in the insurance industry. He later became a life acctuary for the state of Georgia insurance department. I learned alot about risk and business management from my father. My sister Jeri took a job with a trucking company in Doraville,GA. in 1979. I would purposely arrive early to pick her up in hopes of driving one of those big windshield trucks. You know which one! The GMC Astro! I would drive them around the parking lot where I learned how to shift and backing. Imagine having a window where the scenery changes every second and nobody over your shoulder! AH yes,the freedom of the open road! I have traveled around this great country of ours countless times and with each passing mile, I always remember our troops and sacrifices they make to keep the United States of America the best country in the world! My father was a WWII veteran. R.I.P dad! In conclusion, we fixed the blue mustang and I always make sure that Godzilla never crushes a car that I haul!
