Every year there are two groups of people in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving: those who allow Christmas into their lives and those who don't have room for two holidays.

What a wonderful thing to do, the Boise Stage Stop really takes care of truck drivers. They get not only a free turkey dinner with all the trimmings but the Boise Stage Stop will also have prizes. They want to say thank you to their customers and also help the truck drivers who are away from home.
