What a day for a winter drive.

Sunday I took some back roads from Sylacauga to Vincent. Then my day got a lot more fun, Hwy 25 was so nice. I only had 1 truck in the way and he moved over and let me by. Now Coop feels good enough to go back under his blanket for a few more weeks.

Yep under his blanket. I know its kinda sad, but I am in an apartment complex and no where to leave him out of the winter conditions. So he gets all cleaned up and has a nice warm cover to get under. Maybe soon I will be able to drive him alot more, but now all these basketball games just keeps me on the road, so the pickup is getting all the miles.

Nice he has a winter coat / security blanket while safely hibernating. I guess he's dreaming about the high profile people your truck encounters.

I'm sorry to ask a stupid newcomer question, but do you play or coach basketball and for whom? We have not been properly introduced!
