Not too long ago, I went for a little R&R to see our daughter and her family. They live about three hours away (depends on who is driving) and have a farm that is very picturesque. Their wrap around porch has a swing where one can take in the beauty of the land and animals and swing away the stress . It’s always a pleasure to spend time with them. This brings me to how I bought a fire truck!
Talking with my son-in-law, he was telling me about the local fire department selling their old pumper fire truck. When I saw it, I asked how much. The price was very reasonable, it had good tires by my judgement (even though I know nothing about tires!) and they told me it had less then 8,ooo miles! I immediately envisioned all the grandsons riding on top in a parade. I couldn’t wait to call Marty and tell him that we just had to have this fire truck. Of course, he thought I had lost my mind but I could tell he was thinking when he started to ask questions. He wasn’t thinking parades but he was thinking it would make a great pump to pump water to our new vineyard. I BOUGHT A FIRE TRUCK ! You just might see it on a weekend parked at the winery, check it out. Last weekend a couple visited us and were so surprised to see their home town fire truck! She had to have her picture taken in the drivers seat. What are the odds… we had a few good laughs about that!
Rain, rain and more rain we have had enough! We were able to plant the remaining vignole this week before the rains arrived, another task completed. Maybe we will see some of you this weekend, its going to be a beautiful one.
