Towing and Recovery, There When You Need It

A Classic Tow Truck from The Towing & Recovery Hall of Fame & Museum, Chattanooga, TN

Tonight on the way home from dinner I came off a curb and my car’s muffler fell off its mounts. I couldn’t go any further so I had to call my insurance company to have them send a tow truck. This really nice guy that was dispatched to help me, got there assessed the problem and fixed my car on the spot. His experience and knowledge made the difference. This meant I didn’t have to go to a garage where they might have charged me to fix the problem.

My friends, you see towing and recovery trucks all over. Where there are cars there are people to help you out of a jam in case of an accident or doing something stupid like I did. These men and women are dedicated to their profession and they do it in sometimes dangerous conditions. Whenever you come across a tow truck operator thank them for what they do to keep people safe and to keep traffic flowing.

Thank you tow truck operators for all you do.

In this galaxy on this Earth we need to fight, resist and rebel like they did in a galaxy far, far away. Be inspired by Luke, Leia and Han along with Rey, Fin and Rose to fight for the future.

Status Update

I think blogging has a bright future. As social media like Facebook face challenges of regulation due to the types of ads and news it transmits a blog will be a personal social media platform. We just have to keep blogging and keep things moving along in the future.
