Happy Belated Presidents Day! Since it's also officially Washington's Birthday, many people celebrated with cherry pie, cherry cake, and other dishes related to the story that Washington would not tell a lie when asked if he cut down a cherry tree.

We hope that your Presidents Day was a bowl of cherries, too! Be safe, and have a great day!

When you think of Boyd Bros., do you think of Alabama and Georgia and our beautiful southeastern states only? We also have lots of freight in places like Missouri, which happens to be tied with another state in our hiring area for the "most neighborly" state. Why? Because it borders 8 other states!

How good is your geography ... besides Missouri, what's our other "most neighborly" state?

Any NASCAR fans remember what happened on this day in 1997? Seems like yesterday ... 25-year-old Jeff Gordon was enjoying his first Daytona 500 win ... and becoming the youngest winner in the race's history.

Anyone know who the OLDEST Daytona 500 winner is?
