I am in Clear Lake Iowa, this evening. About 16 miles from my delivery. Planning on getting up at 5:30 am and head over to Garner Iowa, and undeck and deliver these trucks, then get back to the motel and clean up for a flight. Out of Mason City Iowa. The airport that Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Big Booper last flew out of.
For those that may not know or remember this.
On Feb 2, 1959, rock stars Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Big Booper performed at Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa. Shortly after midnight, the three rock stars took off in a charted plane that promptly crashed on take off, killing the pilot and the three rock stars.
