Sunday Silence

 

What's in your truck?

What we carry around with us in our vehicles says a lot about us. Here's what is in my truck:

In the back seat- copies of the registration papers on the horses I have for sale; my straw hat; 2 spare ball caps; 3 reusable shopping bags. On the floor- tissues; a steel bowl for watering the dogs tucked partway under the seat; extra set of spurs, tie down strap; and two hitches- 2" and 2 5/16". Not visible in the pockets is the jar of peanuts (emergency rations!); the mearuring tape, lint roller, two pairs of work gloves, and a shammy.

On my visor is a Cross with the motorists prayer and a holy card; sunglasses with the business card for the vet tucked in behind. Also in the front I keep a power box for plugging in my cell phone, more sunglasses, pens and cd's and tucked into the headliner on each side is a poppy for Remembrance Day (Memorial Day in the US).

And in the back-what else but two border collies! When winter hits, I'll have a few more things, such as a blanket, a shovel, warm gloves; and I'll cover the back seat with an old sheet so that the dogs can ride inside when it gets too cold.

Now I tag KDW at Blackjack Land and Cattle, Mikey at Horseshoeing Housewife Linda at Just Another Day on the Prairie and W.O.W. at A Cowboy's Life to give us some insight on what their vehicle says about them!

All moved again!

Today I hauled the horses to their new home, a rented pasture that will serve very well until we buy a place (most likely next spring). They have nice paddocks until the grass comes in, then will have around 15 acres to roam around in- they have already sussed out the grass from last year poking through the snow! Speaking of snow, it started snowing shortly after I got them settled in. I think my guardian angel was doing a good job of looking after me because after I parked at the new pasture, the rear wheel seal let go on our truck and left a puddle of oil, thankfully it didn't happen while I was driving! So now my pretty red truck is lame and needs to go to the vet....
