bye truck

kara sold her truck yesterday. now we're down to 2 motor vehicles. someone had happened by the 1995 ford f-150 getting rather dusty in front of our house and rang our bell. after some months of deliberation she decided to sell. she hadn't driven it in maybe a couple of years and the battery was of course dead. and there were things in it that needed fixed - cracked windshield, detached rear-view mirror, etc - that she hadn't gotten around to fixing and probably wouldn't for some time. a tow truck had to come and cart it off, and when kara came back inside she was crying. that truck had taken her on her year-long trek across and around this grand country several years back, and i'm sure it's filled with rich memories. she took that trip all on her own, save for her cat wingo, her dog spock, and her dog max, all now deceased. and now the truck is gone as well. so it was kind of a sad evening last evening.
