Now even though there are many other vehicles that I’m thankful for, today I am very thankful for our farm truck.
It’s not clean and it is starting to get a little rust on it, but it’s ours and it sure has come in handy this morning.
Why you might ask? Well the other day I noticed that there was a sale going on in one of our nearby towns for kayaks and with high hopes that one day we might actually get out on the water, I decided to go back and take a look again. I mean it couldn’t hurt right?
Well before I headed out this morning I needed to grab a few things out of the truck. The first thing was the weed sprayer. I guess this is something that Daryl normally keeps in his truck or something? No idea, but it needed to come out. So it was in the back and when I lifted it out of the truck some of it kind of drizzled down my leg. It was one of those times when you first think that you will have to go and either take a shower or wash your leg down. But then after a couple of minutes it really didn’t smell too bad and I after a good smear I was ready to go. Some hooded sweatshirts was the last thing to grab out of the cab and then a quick wipe down for the top layer of dust from the dash. I’m off!
Have you ever got to a store and was super excited to look at something then your store helper wasn’t on the same page as you? Well if this has happened to you then you’ll know what I’m talking about when I say that the shopping experience wasn’t the best one that I’ve ever had! Oh well, neither one of us died or anything (he came close though – I’m just saying!!) and soon I picked out the perfect 10 ft second kayak for our family. I know that even if we go a couple of times, it’ll pay for itself.
So into the truck it goes and with a couple of bungee cords holding it down I was soon making my way home with my new treasure.
Another reason why everyone should own a truck!
Now it just needs to get a little warmer and stop raining to take it out on it’s madden voyage. I sure hope this happens soon!!
