The.Ram.


It's friday night, and I am sitting here writing while joseph is in the maintenance garage here at camp working on "the truck".  I am starting to understand what it means for a man to have a truck.  It is an amazing thing...he loves to tinker and fix that thing up.  My eyes are opening to a new world...new things that we can do, now that God has provided us with a truck!  So yes, the dodge is growing on me as well.  Muddy roads that used to make us leary to drive through now don't even make us think twice, as long as we are in the dodge.  Have some wood or large rocks that need to be moved?  We have a truck!  Hmm, well, now we can help family or friends move.  We can pull a trailer.  We can haul our bikes any where (without a bike rack) .  And i can throw my muddy rubber boots in back, and it doesn't even matter!  We have decided to use the truck as a work truck while at camp.  Joe can carry all of his tools in the back, which is very handy.  And while we are building so much around here, an extra truck is welcome.  *sigh*  so I guess its ok to have a truck.  Although, joe keeps threatening to put to large smoke stacks on the back, to fit in to the local fleet of pickups running around Morrow county.  I just grin and roll my eyes...he will never do it.  But he did re-install the hood ornament that had managed to fall off before he bought the truck...the dodge would not be complete without it!   So as a wife, I am learning what a special machine a truck can be, especially to my husband.  A man and his truck...now all we need is a puppy dog to jump in the back!
