This is National Trucking Week so I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to all of those involved in the transportation industry. Many of you I am proud to call friends and I respect the people in this industry in so many ways. You have taught me lessons that have guided me for a lifetime. You keep our lives moving with goods and services, but you also teach us teamwork and how to get a very important job done.
