Tough guys turn cute

The Wall Street Journal published an article yesterday about what truck drivers do in their free time.  It seems that since the economic down turn, truck drivers are finding themselves with a lot of extra time on their hands.  After making a long haul and unloading their deliveries, they may spend a day or even two waiting on a load of cargo to take on their return trip.  So what do they do for two days in a truck stop?  Well, it's probably not what you're thinking.  It seems that a lot of truck drivers have taken up crafting.  That's right, from quilting to knitting and everything in between, these tough guys are rolling up their sleeves and making something pretty.  I love it!
