Bless the workers

Sat., Oct. 11, 2014

We just returned from a short trip to the Oregon Coast and as we traveled along the freeways of Washington and Oregon, I was once again reminded of what a wonderful land we live in. The scenery was of course spectacular, but I had forgotten just how many people strive to make our lives better every day.

Many truck drivers, train engineers and riverboat captains work daily to get things to all of us across the United States. We are blessed every day with these hard-working people as they move products around the U.S. Even in this day of high technology, we still need all of those truck drivers, train engineers and riverboat captains to make our lives easier.

God bless all those dedicated people who work long hours to make our lives just a little more comfortable each day.
