PHOTO: Appreciation and wellness walk yields rainbow view

Sep 20, 2013

The walk ended with this view of a rainbow over I-29 traffic.

The “Truckers Wellness Walk” on Sept. 19 in Sioux City, Iowa, a driver appreciation event on a municipal trail put on by Peterbilt of Sioux City, Love’s Travel Stops, a local walking club and the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA), ended with a beautiful rainbow view. Drawing a round 20 participants, included drivers and others, the hike proceeded through Chautauqua City Park and north along the tree-lined Missouri River. Nice way to cap off the week?
