Hello everyone. Thanks for letting me join up.
So a little about me I suppose. Everyone calls me Subway. I am from Minnesota, grew up about a half hour north of St. Paul. And moved about a hour west of the Twin Cites in 2010. I grew up in the trucking industry my Mom and Dad had a company for quite some time, my Granddad started driving when he got home from the Navy in '46. Dad started in '70 after he got home from the Marines/Vietnam. I followed next in line. Being 37 now I started young, bought my first truck when I was 18 a 1974 International and a 1969 Fruehauf flatbed trailer. Hauled lumber locally for our distributor until I was 21 and could "legally" leave the borders of MN to what I did on my 21st birthday. Several different trucks and trailers I never looked back till a couple years ago. Ever changing laws, and started to miss the kids so I hung up my keys.

I took a job in my town wrenching on machines after I sold my truck and that lasted a couple years until December 29th this past year when a careless co-worker caused a explosion and we were both taken out. I am still recovering. So with a little more time on my hands and lurking here I decided to Join. I have been a pipe smoker (again following my dad and grandpa) for as long as I can remember. I have a fond to me collection mostly Savinelli and Peterson. Why I am not sure it is what I have came to enjoy.

Anyway. Probably the longest intro ever. So with that, thank you again all and nice to meet you.
Welcome from Virginia
