Valdosta - A South Georgia Man received the ride of his life today.

32 year-old Barry Denson of Valdosta has always been fascinated with semi-trucks.

Although he's mentally challenged and deaf, he's learned to sign "Blow your horn Trucker" and always thrilled when they honk back.

The Normal Life of Georgia teamed up with C & B tours to give Denson his dream ride Friday afternoon.

The truck pulled up to the center and the driver took Denson on a ride through Valdosta.

The Normal Life of Georgia Center tries to grant four wishes like this every year.
