We have been searching lately. Wilbert has been searching for a truck. To be very specific a Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 diesel with a 5 speed manual transmission between the years of 1994-1998. Can we be any more specific? There are all kinds of rational for why it has to be this truck, the main one being Wilbert wants to convert it to run on vegetable oil. The sad thing is that there is one right here in lot in town, but they are asking way to much for it. Wilbert tried to swing a deal but they didn't take it. So now it stares him down every time we drive by.
One nice thing about being from two different countries is that we can celebrate more holidays. And since there are a few more people from the states here, last night we had our own American Thanksgiving feast. There were six couples and all of the wives and two of the husbands were from the States. So the Americans out numbered the Canadians, which doesn't happen very often. And we had a feast. There was turkey, ham, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green beans, bread, stuffing and three different kinds of pies for dessert and a pumpkin cake. It was wonderful. And the fellowship was great too. The hosts said there was no assigned seating, so the ladies all sat together at one of the table and guys at the other. It was funny how it worked out, but we had great conversations full of laughter. It was a great way to celebrate a holiday. Hopefully we have started our own tradition here.
