      I drove for one company and whenever I was at the main terminal there seemed to more women outside than when I'd first come in when I got to the fuel pumps. While fueling I'd have the music turned up and moving to it while I fueled. Between dancing, walking and a change of diet I went from 250 pounds to 210 and then down to 180 and am currently at 192 for the past year. No one thought I'd be able to do it considering the lifestyle of an over-the-road driver.

    Back way back in the mid 80's when smartphones and social media didn't even exist. In fact socializing was done in person and it was a lot more fun and it was great. Those were great times that unfortunately will never come back and will stay only as good old memories.

Before all the violence, it was a blast. The sound systems there were second to none. Alot of El Paso would go, GIs included. We, for the most part got along with the Mexican people. Many people there worked in the twin plants (Maquilas). They were always ready to have fun at the end of the work week. Juarez was known for that. Big shout out to my town, El Paso Strong.
