the new kid in the garage

well, my sis bought a new truck without really checking to see if it would fit in the garage.
as you can see it just makes it. i told her she could not add on to the garage for her truck, nor could she cut little side openings for the mirrors to go through. it just barely makes it.

she tried to fold back mirrors, but didn't know the trick until she called her son. you can see there is not much room in the back and in the other picture you can see how much space there is from the front bumber to the step into the house.

bertie looks like a hobbit next to the new truck. i keep trying to tell her that she should name it thor, but i think she wants to think up her own name. it is big. half ton extended cab.

it really is nice. we took it up to the local variety store and bought some plants to put in the back to break in the bed of the truck.

but, it really won't be broken in until someone spills a drink inside.
she was babysitting her grandchildren today and when she took them out to taco john's for lunch, she made us all eat inside instead of in the truck. we will see how long that lasts.
