CC373 Farm Truck

Photo Details

Poster: tessaduck

My dad's green Ford pickup put in a lot of hours on our little farm where I grew up. This image, technically not a pickup, reminded me of that old Ford. Kids now can't know the feeling of riding in the back of a pickup with bales of hay...

btw, the bling that looks like passive blood splatter (which is what might happen with kids riding in the back of pickups--yuck!) is Halloween pumpkins. I cut the stems off and adhered them vertically.

I love your card, and the memories it brought back to me. There are some memories one never forgets. Great idea about the pumpkins. tfs

I have previously been a crime scene tech, so your description "passive blood spatter" made me smile! Great way to expand the usability of a seasonal embellishment!

Oh, you are funny! I remember riding in the hay.......with it stuck EVERYWHERE!! The pumpkins are interesting (and then again, sort of yucky! LOL!).
