FOLLOW YOUR DREAM
by John Yeo
Joe was a steam train buff, he loved the metal monsters that chugged across the great prairies through the stunning scenery in the days of the steam train revolution. Joe's dream was to go to the famous Chattanooga hotel and visit the original site of the great train-ride that was the inspiration for the big band hit "Chattanooga Choo-Choo", made famous by Glenn Miller and his big band.
Joe Sproggins was a man who had spent his life in a merchant bankers office in the city of London in the UK, where Joe dreamed his alter-ego dreams of riding on the footplate of this grand old steam engine.
Joe was married to Dora and their very precious first memory was the night they met, dancing in the local dance-hall to the sound of a big band, belting out "Chattanooga Choo-Choo".
Fifty years later, after a very happy marriage, they excitedly arrived in Chattanooga in Tennessee to fulfil Joe's lifetime dream.
Joe was in seventh heaven, soaking up his musical dream.
