The new owner drove away in my truck this evening. I took it for one last drive around the block before he got here, thought about all we've been through. I've driven it from Quebec to Alberta, all the 48 contiguous states, zig zagged down the length of Mexico from Juarez to the Guatemala border and back. The think that sticks in my mind the most is those cold snowy mornings when I'd go out at 4 AM and hooked up the trailer to haul my tractor to town to clear the parking lot. It was a real working partner. I couldn't begin to name all the crap I've hauled in that thing. I'm really going to miss it. The guy asked me if I was going to miss it and I just had to walk away. When he left I cried like a baby. I feel like I've closed a 12 year long chapter in my life. Damn...
