Don't let those photos fool you Gene, I am a wood butcher. But you'd be 
surprised what a hammer, sawsall and palm sander can do. I don't really 
know if it will go down the road straight but it can haul a half-ton of 
compost up from the barnyard without squatting. It's first actual road 
trip will be Monday to the garage for a sticker.

Haha. You couldn't feed me enough to make me work on another truck. 
Donnie, Donnie, he's your man ... Besides, I'm still trying to rid my 
belly of Holiday feasts from last year. I tell you, no gym can take off 
pounds like forking a garden.
