A ride in a sweatshop on wheels

I took a ride with port trucker Carol Cauley last week to find out more about their plight. A single mom with a wedge haircut and wraparound sunglasses, Carol looks more like she belongs cheering on the sidelines of a soccer field than driving a big rig.

Summer movies: Some like it cool

Savannahians have another option — classic films on the big screen in the lush and luxurious Lucas Theatre, and right around the corner, in the Trustees Theater.
