Hey Brian,
Little Off Topic from your post, but you mentioned your "club"...wouldn't
be the "Modesto Area Truckers", would it? I was involved with them (MAT's)
in the '78-'80/81. Just wondering if they were still around.
Gonna be moving back into the area too, in the next few weeks...back to
Oakdale in fact.
