Big Red

Tom has been building big trucks since he was a little boy. He loves to do that and for many years he did it for a very good living.  We took vacations and everything. Had the house painted a couple of times had 2 new roofs--lived like real people!!  Years and years he was building sometimes 2 at a time.  The picture is of Big Red.  The man he built that one for brought his truck to Tom in pieces!!!  We wanted a MUD truck and he wanted to put it in shows.   This is what he got when Tom had finished!!! 
The truck was finished except for painting .  The man had a friend to paint the truck for him!!

Happy week-end dear friends!!
Love coming your way, Zoie & Fern

  7. Hi Fern, that's a big one all right. I think that you'd need a rope ladder or a good six-foot step ladder to get into and out of that one. Could be tricky with a dress on huh?
