I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a simple gal enjoying life on the road. Hubby and I are over the road truck drivers.. or as we like to call it: "Paid Tourists" It's pretty cool to have adventures every single day and travel.... not only on someone elses dime, but getting paid for it! I am digging it! Sometimes it feels like a thankless job, but then I think about how everyone would be naked if not for us truckers..LOL. So be kind to us.. when you pass us on the road, smile at us and give us a friendly wave. You have no idea how that simple gesture can turn a crappy day into a good one!

My Interests

One of my favorite things to do is GeoCaching. GeoCaching is sort of like a scavenger hunt that adults can enjoy. All you really need is a handheld GPS system and internet access to get the cache information in your area and to log your find. If you love being outdoors and adventure, do yourself a favor and check it out.

Music:

I love almost ALL music..from Classic Country to Classic Rock.. New Country to New Rock.. Blues, R & B, easy listening, folk.. Even a bit of rap.. as long as its not Gangster rap

Books:

I seldom pick up a book that I dislike.

Heroes:

My beautiful daughter, Trista and my Hubby, Terry who keeps me safe while I'm sleeping and he is driving.
