Back in 81 i was still trucking and i stopped by a friends oil filed service company to see if i could borrow a dozer for the weekend , i had parked my semi out in the yard next to a couple of his that were still in the yard , he and i were standing talking in the one service bay door way and saw this storm coming fast , rain picked up and started to blow in the shop so he closed the door and were still standing there looking out the winder when a bolt of lighting came down and flat nailed the top back left corner of my coal bucket it moved the empty trailer like four feet to the right took out everything electrical blew all 18 tires . This happened again in 83 just before i got out of trucking while it was setting where i parked the truck at a friends place. hit the wsame place top left next to the tail gate and once again blew a hole thru 1/2 aluim plate . My fiends wife saw it hit and called telling me i needed to rush down and check the truck , i asked her if she saw smoke and she looked and said NO , i told her if she saw smoke just wait till ya see flames then give it 20 min.s to get going really good before she call the fire dept.
