Take a look around and you'll find miles of beautiful countryside. Pristine lakes and parks for picnics. There's places for hiking, beaches for swimming, and restaurants serving up some of the best eats around. From east to west, a traveler is privy to some of the most amazing sights one could imagine. Our culture is one of kind, too. Americans are like no others. When times are tough, we work together. When help is needed, we rise to the occasion. When the fireworks light up the sky, we remember our heritage and rejoice in the freedoms we share. 

Let's face it, the upcoming holiday will probably be like no other we've experienced. And as surely as the night passes into day, the dynamics of our celebrations will leave an imprint on our hearts. Drivers will continue to uphold their responsibility of keeping goods safe and making sure they arrive to their destinations. It's a heroes role and truck drivers everywhere are answering the call. We can all be thankful for that. As Al Pacino said in The Irishman, "If you got it, a trucker brought it." Solidarity is a valuable thing.

This year, we are witness to a world of challenge and to history in the making, including the rise of the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, those in the trucking field, like Deborah Lockridge in her article on truckinginfo.com, are discussing the concerns for drivers in this unprecedented moment. We are a mighty nation with devout individualism, but it is important for drivers everywhere remain safe and follow the close guidance of their dispatchers, company managers, and national health leaders.

Above all else, in times like these, we remember what it truly means to be American. At Millis Transfer, we not only celebrate the love of our country, but we celebrate our continued dedication to the trucking industry and our team of professional and responsible drivers.
