My husband drives a truck, and headed back to work today, after a few days of home time. The theme this week is People at Work, so I thought I would document him getting back to work. Trucking is an exciting and interesting job, and one that everyone counts on...trucks keep this country rolling. You might never have given it much thought, but we depend on trucks for everything. Remember, if you got it, a truck brought it!

Marshall Tucker Band: 24 Hours a Day
Must keep up to date files and pictures of the wifey. We are co-drivers and co-owner/operators with Fed Ex Custom Critical...and drive all over the US and Canada delivering overnight freight... taking pictures...eating Vietnamese food...and playing golf...with our trusty companion Gracie the German Pomeranian (father was a German Shepherd/mother was a Pomeranian...it was a bad mixed relationship) We live in beautiful St Augustine, Florida on purpose...but we love the West and West Coast.
We often say that the northern California Redwood area is the most beautiful place in the US...there are many...but there is so much to offer in this area with climate, natural beauty, oceans, mountains, rivers...very moderate temperature year round, but can get over 100 degrees within 50 miles of here in the summer...and have 4 or 5 feet of snow within 100 miles of here in the winter.
In this picture, Donna is trying to rip down one of the trees to take home and use in the front yard...of course the tree is larger than our house...so that could be a small problem. The tree here is in HDR...the wife is not...and for good reason! Actually, she loves to take home anything redwood for gifts, etc...they smell good...honestly though, we love to walk through the redwood groves together...its like being in a huge church or something...and they really make you feel at home. Donna has always reminded me of an elven princess and her colors really fit in here with this beautiful wood.
diamond daggered daughter (James watkins)
Diamond daggered daughter-
radiance so rare-
soft as starlight,
hard as heaven,
strength beyond compare.
Constant as the morning-
dazzling as the day-
golden nights and moonlit flights-
in lasting loveās foray.
Autumn colored princess,
fallish fawning fair-
rooted deep---through winter's sleep-
she waits without a care.
Go gently in her presence-
you gilding gown of day-
for joy is in her armament,
and life in her array.
Bold bolstering hands
by helpful heart,
contend on buttress bare...
Full-forced she stands
against all fear-
her armory prepared.
Against the challenge of her time-
far from frenzied fray-
of mystery and darkened mind-
that hunts the periled prey.
The soul of man
can not withstand,
her onslaught soon released-
of warmth and laughter
waxing wild
with primal passioned peace.
So run your race with confidence-
and stand before your king-
your storehouse full and prospering-
your children clothed and clean.
Your husband known by men of war-
your journey now complete-
prepared to stand at God's right hand-
with crowns before his feet.
James watkins

Indian driver gets his one-day permit checked by the Pakistani officials as he leaves the Wagah border at dusk. His truck bearing a Maharashtran number plate and cotton bales has traveled for 3 days to deliver goods at the Pakistani border. ADB's Central Asia and Regional Economic Cooperation Programme (CAREC) strives to create and encourage atmosphere for trade between borders. Pakistan has ancient links with India. In 2015, the trade between India and Pakistan had reached 900 million US dollars. It is expected that trade will further increase if border management system is improved.

VIP Transport is a division of The Department of Internal Affairs, providing road transport for the Prime minister, former Prime ministers, Governor General, Minister's of the Crown, Foreign Dignitaries and Royalty. This tie would have been worn by chauffeurs.
I personally wore this tie, while I was a working for a contractor that provided transport for VIP Transport and then as VIP chauffeur for a brief time. I am not a fan of clip-on ties but I was given this by a good friend who got me into this line of work :)

As Ricky Tomlinson in TV's Royle Family would say ; "Professional, my arse!".
The junction at the top of our road (from where I took this pic) runs into the very busy main Preston to Liverpool road. There are another six coaches lined up behind the coach @ left ; all are parked on a blind bend. Neither bus drivers nor waiting/intending bus passengers can see one another @ the bus stop @ right.
Intending bus passengers of course could, if they were willing to put their lives at risk, wait in the road and stick their heads out from behind the Llew Jones coach every time they heard an approaching vehicle, to see if it was a bus. Also note that any bus stopping here would have to do so in the middle of the road, since there is no way it could pull into and out of the gap between the Llew Jones and Global Travel coach @ right..
Incidentally this is in an area mainly populated by elderly people.
All coaches involved are delivering golf enthusiasts to "Royal Birkdale" golf course, the day before 'The Open' begins. Birkdale is several miles away from here but the coach drivers find this area of Southport a very convenient place to park for the day.
Very convenient for themselves of course -- but very IN-convenient for all we locals, as well as other vehicles & drivers too. And very bloody dangerous as well.
One of the professional drivers from Ford took us around the off-road course like a bat out of hell. This was shot while we were doing about 50mph.

This is an older VIP neck tie, which I got as a gift by a good friend :) It possibly would have been the style of tie worn during my Ford LTD's time as 'CR1'
