About This Site

This blog is primarily intended to keep our family and friends up-to-date on where we are and where we’re going as we drive around the country as long-haul truckers. But it’s also a chance to share some observations about life on the road and life in general.

The title is a reference to one of the things we find so attractive about driving a truck (which weighs 40 tons – 80,000 pounds – when fully loaded); it allows us to travel all over this great country of ours, see the sights, and get paid while we're doing it!

Just the Black Keys

Mike has been a musician since before junior high school, playing saxophone and keyboards in a variety of bands all the way through college. He spent a few years away from public performances after that but eventually starting playing keyboards and singing in church.

Among the church groups he is currently playing with is a gospel group at Calvary Chapel East Anaheim. It was here that he developed a deeper appreciation for all styles of gospel music. Even so, he had never heard the truth that is described in the video post entitled "Amazing Grace: Just the Black Keys!" You can view it by clicking here.

Perhaps Senator Obama should have been listening to messages such as this instead of those spouted by Reverand Wright for the past 20 years...
