NOOOOOOOOOO I have Not Finished Mine yet....BUT, I Waaaaas working on it when Jackie caught me on film. (Hhhhhhhhhh! The "exposed" side of the Mooooooon! Oh Steve's gonna EDIT this one! Ha ha ha ha)
ANY.....way.....! That's not why I'm starting a post here, of which I haven't done for many Moons. (Ha??? ...ok )
So anyway, CJ Williams was the lucky guy to get to do TWO panels during the last swap (sarcasm) ... and I (feeling very proud here) got them BOTH!!!!
Now! ....Let me tell you something about the second very special panel I got-
Picture an "18-wheeler" (Truck, Rig, Slam Bang....) driving towards YOU... out of this panel.... Ok.
That's what CJ painted for ME. The Truck was inspired from his Truck Driving days.
I don't know about you guys but I have a thing for Big Trucks. (literally dam it! yeaaaaah, you all in the back of the room!)
I have had the pleasure of slapping on Sign Gold on four of these Brand New KenWorth babies in the last 4 years, And I STILL get such a Rush while crawling all over these trucks apply'n Sign Gold (SG- only because THAT'S ALL this guy wanted, believe ME- I PAID for those rolls!!! Dam!) but back to MY story.... I don't know what it is, but I am Drawn to these trucks...
Wellllll..... This Thursday- I, Stefenie M. Harris, am beginning my FIRST lesson on How TO DRIVE Big Rigs!!!!!! (Wholly F-ing schit Bat Man!!!! This is WAY Cooooool.)
Now I ask you.... Did CJ's panel inspire this New Career path for the Moon? What do YOU think? (Op! I went and Played the "opinion" card! I am bound to get good feedback here! )

CJ will get a chuckle out of this.
Chick, you are just not right. I knew there was a reason I liked you. And you are either way too excited about this or seriously need to re-think your caffeine intake. Posted by Henry Barker (Member # 174) on :
That's great for you! Good luck with the driving.
I went from driving semi-trucks to making signs, driving long distance as I did is a great lifestyle, nice sense of freedom on the open road. Bit harder with a family
Truck driving brought me to Sweden and a whole new life, and here the trucks are big over 85ft long and 60 tons, and miles of beautiful country side, forests and lakes.

Hey, Moon Unit... I just posted because I've always wanted to be under Henry, so to speak.... But seriously, you are lucky to have 2 of CJ's panels. He brings me one almost any time he makes the 300 mile trip out here. Both he & Kissy can drive from Lancaster to Butler in about 3 hours...but he's the trucker. I think maybe Kissy needs to be a lady trucker! One of the best drivers I've ever ridden with...BTW, it takes me 6 hours! Love-JILL

Stefanie,
Good luck on your new adventure.
C'mon and visit sometime if you drive out this way. Plenty of logging trucks to letter in these parts.
I was gonna make a joke about "Peterbuilt", but I'll refrain. Rapid

Ahhh Stef . . . can you reach the pedals? Can you see over the steering wheel? Sure hope you got some muscle for them turns! And whatever you do, DON'T take Highway 49. I met a trucker in Reno (back in my slim good lookin' days) who wanted to meet up on his next trek. I picked Placerville, of all places (half way between here & where he was). His 18-wheeler got stuck trying to go around those hairpin turns. Couldn't figure out why he was late, so I drove on a bit, only to find him & his truck blocking traffic :>), stuck, and I mean stuck!! (am I bad?). He never called back, hmmmm
Jill - I met Henry in Sweden, and believe me, he's everything you are dreaming about! He's a really, really great guy. And much better looking in person. (I just about fell over! - but I'm married). Sorry Henry, but I'm lettin' the cat out of the bag . . . Henry's wife is absolutley knock 'em dead georgous ( a true Swedish beauty) - a very intelligent lady with warm hospitality. It was a real pleasure meeting both of them. And Henry is right - Sweden is beautiful!
