    Amazing post.

    Its a true inspiration for those of us who honor and admire the profession from a far. I am the grandson of a veteran driver and have dreamed of driving but hasn't yet. I always thought of drivers as hero's of the open road partly because my hero was my grandfather and he dedicated his professional life to trucking.
