My name is Louis. I was born Feb. 3, 1956 in East Chicago, Indiana. At age 6 My parents moved to Gary, Indiana but I found them. Ha! I attended first Horace Mann H.S. and later Lew Wallace H.S., both in Gary, Indiana. | ||||||||||||||||

At the age of 19 I enlisted in the U.S. Navy and serve onboard The U.S.S. Guam (1976-1977) then later The U.S.S. Independence (1978-1979). During this time I travel to Spain, France, Italy, Kenya, Egypt and Israel. I also traveled to Guantanam Bay, Cuba and Puerto Rico. From 1987 to 1989 I worked for the Navy as a civilian Mariner and Traveled again to Cuba and Puerto Rico. I also traveled to Brazil and transversed The Panama Canal(Pacific to Gulf of Mexico). | ||||||||||||||||

I started driving a truck in 1979. I was an over the road (long haul) driver until 1989. (minus the time I worked as a civilian for the Navy). I became a local driver at that point for a grocery store chain. In 1995 I started hauling gasoline and other light oil products and that is what I do today. In 1982, because of the high unemployment rate where I was living, I decided to move to Texas. I was originally headed for Houston. I decided to stop in Dallas first. I got a job the next day and made The DFW Metroplex my home. I now live in Arlington, Texas. The place can be a bit hot in the summer but I love the winter. More to come, Maybe. | ||||||||||||||||
