My husband decided to go to an equipment auction yesterday (hard to fence in this downpour) and came home with a dumptruck. A big old dumptruck.
Since we already have a dump trailer and a dumptruck is not really a piece of equipment strictly necessary for a fencing company, I asked him why we needed a dump truck. I didn't really get a good answer but I have a good idea why he got it. Unfulfilled dreams from the childhood sandbox I think. Maybe we can paint it Tonka truck yellow?
So if you are out and about and see a guy gleefully chuffing the air brakes in his dump truck, give him a wave. It'll probably be my husband.

OK, Misty, I really can't help but take a crack at this. Being a girl, you will probably not understand, but sometimes you have to buy a neat tool, take it home, and let it find it's place! You'd be surprised how often these things come in handy. I am jealous though, and will now search for a good time too ask my wife if I can have one too. LOL, I know you don't understand, it's a guy thing. Testosterone dripping virtual high fives to your husband. Mike

Okay...but it's easier to find a place for a screwdriver than it is for a dumptruck! I draw the line at cement mixer trucks....
