Truck

Always remember the last words of my grandfather who said, "A truck!"

This truck looks a lot like the one my grandpa had.  I used to play in it.  I used to pretend I was driving away.  Not sure where I was driving TO, just that I was driving AWAY FROM where I was.  I don't remember particularly wanting to leave the farm where the truck was.  I think it was just sort of an imaginary adventure where I would drive away and go somewhere new and then keep driving.

 

Unless I heard Erik and my cousin Tamara coming.  In that case, I would get down on the floor and hide from them.  I sure did like hiding from them.  I liked it more if they were looking for me, but even if they weren't, I liked to hide.  And it was actually easier to hide from them if they weren't looking for me. 

 

It's easy to hide from people who aren't trying to find you.
