WHAT IS A TRUCK STOP WORTH SEEING ?
I WANT TO SEE ALTA'S TRUCK STOP . AS I GREW UP ALTA ,
AT NIGHT , LOOKED LIKE THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON . THE
LITTLE COUNTRY STORE AT ASBURY WHICH WAS A SCENIC BEAUTIFUL PLACE .
THE WHOLE AREA IS PANORAMIC .IT IS PROBABLY THE MOST SECRET
BEAUTIFUL PLACE IN AMERICA . IT WAS QUIET, THERE WAS LITTLE SOUND
EVER . ALDERSON WAS THE QUIETEST PLACE AT NIGHT I EVER SAW .
IT WAS SO QUIET UNTIL I LEFT I THOUGHT IT WAS THE NORM . I USED GO
DOWN SIT AROUND THE SNACK SHACK , ABOUT EVERY NIGHT, CHEW TOBACCO
SOCIALIZE AND GO HOME ABOUT NINE O'CLOCK OR SO . WE , MY FAMILY HAD
NO CAR AND I NEVER LEARNED TO DRIVE UNTIL I WAS 24 ,AND THEY TALK
ABOUT DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE ! ANYWAY IT WAS A UNIQUE AND
WONDERFUL PLACE TO GROW TO MANHOOD. ALL MY LIFE I HAVE BEEN
ABSOLUTELY SO THRILLED TO GO TO A MALL ,HOTEL, RESTRAINT , OR DRIVE
MY CAR ! MY APPRECIATION HAS NO LIMIT FOR WHAT A GREAT NATION
THIS IS THE OPPORTUNITIES IT HAS FOR WORK AND CAPITAL , MOST NO ALL
OF THAT COMES FROM GROWING P IN A PLACE WHERE AS FAR AS I
COULD SEE WAS THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAINS . |
