Grand Island, NE 1979...
Ron Morales and I left Milwaukee to go to the UP’s new big yard in North Platte...we never made it... We found a motel/bar restaurant along the UP on the west side of GI... We were both 31 years old thinking WE were going to die soon, as we were so old. Me being newly divorced and him...well just him...we were best friends, both Milwaukee Road Hoggers full of piss and vinegar. The motel bar was a DISCO by night....need I say more!!!!
No need to say more I too remember those days. Could drink a barrel and work the next day.
