Some friendships form in unusual ways, and this friendship between two Colorado truckers and a local 4th grade class is no exception.

Hoyt and Mary Maisack made a stop off the highway today to visit Mrs. Morrow's class at Warren Elementary School.

The husband and wife trucker team have been writing the children for two years now.

The kids say it was great to finally meet their pen pals.

The pen pals formed through the Trucker Buddy Program to promote a positive image about truck drivers.
