Met her once and had no idea I spent 20 minutes talking with a country music icon (I was into rock n roll) Her tour bus backed in next to me at a small truck stop on Donner pass when Cal Trans had closed the highway. Gave her a few oranges out of my load and talk a bit and I went into the restaurant where a couple guys started asking questions and I actually said “who” even after they told me her name. ---
