One Era Ends...and another begins!
<
Just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the huge changes happening in my family's life. This will also have a big affect on my co-driver's life. For one, he won't have the never ending privilege of my company. For those who don't know, I have had the fascinating adventure of being an over the road truck driver for the past two and one half years. The past year and a half have been spent team driving which is a simple way to say I've been working and sleeping in a moving truck for quite some time. We've been to all but six states, and I've been to six of Canada's provinces as well. It has been an amazing ride, and I am grateful to have shared it with my adopted brother whom I've known for 23 years. I am thankful to be able to be home more with my family more than words can express, but I wanted to take a moment and say to the Walker clan how much we love them all and appreciate all the times we've shared stresses and challenges with them, especially during the last year and a half. I know you guys have some exciting times ahead as well. I'll try to dig out pics from any and all who have any interest in my memories from the road. This picture was from our final trip this past week. Love ya man.
Thank you, Jesus, for using this to provide for our families and providing us the opportunity to spend more time with them in the future.

You had me all teary eyed there for a minute until you got to the part about not sleeping in a moving truck and then I was like WooHoo!!!
Love you guys too and wish you the best in you new pursuits.
Yep. Kind of hard to encapsulate it all. Could have done a blog strictly about sliding on South Dakota roads, blowing turbos, near misses with pink buses, and the dangers of stray bears, but wouldn't have been safe to type while driving. We officially have 2 lifetimes of stories to cram into one lifetime.
That makes me sad.
