What with winter slowly approaching, I’m beginning to think about how the weather differs each day, from Minnesota. I don’t think we’ve ha our first frost here yet, whereas in MN it probably happened around the end of September!
We’re still loving it down here!
We’ve gotten settled in down here in Texas over the past few months, and as my son is getting a bit older (although two years isn’t very old!), we’ve begun to enjoy playing together; trains, airplanes, and Hot Wheel cars are all fair game.
He has a little maroon pickup truck, that he got probably a year or so ago, that had a surfboard in the back (long since lost), and it’s the coolest looking, lowered truck I’ve seen lately. I just love playing with it, and watching the big chromed wheels spinning.
It’s a 1962 Chevy Custom, and reminds me of my Uncle Brad’s old truck. So, now that I’m in Texas, a glorious land where they do not use salt on the roads, and it’s warm 90% of the year, having a classic vehicle to drive every day is more of a possibility. I’m hoping that once we’re able to sell our house in Minnesota, and buy a new house down here in Texas, I’ll be able to get one of these 1962 Chevy trucks to customize, and make into a real-life Hot Wheel… with my personal touches, of course.
