The Story
His name is Charlie. He's been road tripping since the day he was adopted — raised on highway miles and rest stops with his nose out the window.
Some years Charlie and his driver made the trip.
Some years they couldn't.
Charlie doesn't understand the second kind of year.
His driver, Mike, just turned 70. He lives in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Charlie watches as his driver builds things with his hands, refinishes furniture, grows plants in his yard, and fixes whatever needs fixed.
He's been Charlie's driver for years. He also does everything Charlie needs. He loves to load up whenever Charlie decides it's time to go.
Charlie's driver is a good boy.
This year, Charlie has a plan. He drew it on a chalkboard. He already knows his driver is reliable. He just needs a mobile doghouse.
We are Charlie's Road Crew. This is our job.
When his goals are met, Charlie can start planning his trip to your city next.
