We rode in the back of a pickup. No seatbelts and sometime without a cover. Wow have things changed.

I always wanted to ride in the back of a pickup truck when I was a kid, but no one we knew had one. The closest I got was the back of the station wagon with the window down.

We had a cart on the back of a tractor. You felt those lack of shocks. Or once, a saucer sled hooked up to the tow hitch of a vehicle in the parking lot. My father got into a lotbof trouble, that day.

was it one of those station wagons with the fake wood siding? I think every other house on our block had one of those.

Good morning all. I hope you all had a great weekend.

I'm happy to say that this won't be the usual 5 day eating holiday. All of the out-of-the-ordinary food is gone, and it's back to the regular eating routine. I had some corn and mashed potatoes yesterday, and some of my favorite chocolate cream pie, but it's over. I do have leftover prime rib.

And, I went the entire Easter season without a single Cadbury Cream Egg. Big win.

QOTD: Igrew up in small big town of about 100,000 people. No industry, no big business, just lots of people who mostly went other places to work. Where I lived was very sort of Leave It to Beavershish. I've lived all but 2 years of my life there. Of the 5 places I've lived in the area I could have carried my stuff from one to the next while moving. For many years I owned a second house nearby, and I drove my lawnmower to the other house to do yardwork. I still have several friends I've known all my life.

My husband used to drive his John Deere lawn tractor to the bar after he finished cutting the lawn. For his memorial service in my yard, a bunch of his friends drove their John Deere tractors in a little parade. One of the nice things about a small town is being able to drive the lawn mower instead of the car.
