Goodbye Old Red

 We got a red Ford Pickup truck
WAAAAAAAAAY back when Jimmy
was just a little tyke.
Rod used to sit him with his legs through
the steering wheel and pretend he was driving.

He drove it - but apparently not much,
because there was only 87,000 miles on it.
(When you consider Kyle's F250 has over 400k,
the black F250 we sold had over 300k and the
"new" F250 we just bought has over 200k,
only 87,000 is VERY low mileage.)

Anyhow.
It ended up in the back pasture years ago
and there it sat.
Kyle used the bed to put trash that 
appeared on the property.

Tuesday Rod and I went to DMV and got a
copy of the title.
And today he and Rod loaded it up on the trailer
and took it up to the steel recycle place.


Actually Kyle loaded it up earlier while I was in Tampa.
It has flat tires so he couldn't just roll it onto 
the trailer, he had to pick it up with the Cat.
THAT was an adventure!

Anyhow.
It's gone now.
And they paid him $300 for the steel!

Another chapter closed.
