Do You See What I See?

Yes, it's another post from me!! It's been quite awhile. I'm not even sure anyone is still out there to notice I'm alive and kicking.

It's been unseasonably warm this year. I was out putting up some outdoor Christmas decorations and found these little guys just soaking up the sun.




A lot has happened since I last posted. This is one of our latest additions to the farm. I saw it at a farm on our way to an auction a few weeks back. On our way home, we stopped and left a note with my number on it. The note just told the owner we were interested in buying the truck if they were interested in selling it. Long story short, they just gave it to us! Mr. Farmer went the next weekend and picked it up. There's not much left to it- no front axle, not much of an interior, etc.- but I love the look of it. Based on the design, we think it's somewhere between a 1949 and 1951 GMC dually farm truck. This is it the morning after we brought it home.





This is it with its Christmas wreath.






Here are a few more outdoor decorations. The lights aren't very visible. Maybe I can get out there to take some pics when the sun goes down. 





Well, I'd better save some things for another post!

    1. I finally figured out what I was doing wrong! I have been unable to respond to comments for soooo long now.

      Thank you!

  2. Well, good to hear from you! I checked once in awhile, latest being just a week ago, to see if I was just missing posts in my email. But glad to see you back. I always like seeing your decorations.

    We have been too warm here also. We've had our killing frosts and all but so far only less than an inch of snow.

  3. If you left a comment and don't see it here, please leave another one. I lost your comment in my struggle to figure my commenting issues.

  4. Hi Langela, glad to see you posting again. Love the old truck, I thought of doing the same thing with a old truck. It makes great yard art.

    1. I love it too! I have another one we bought awhile back that we're still waiting to get that we hope to rebuild the bed on so we can use it to sell pumpkins and such off of. I just like the look of the older cars and trucks.

  5. Oops, I was lost!

    Glad to see you back. I'd check your blog once in awhile to see what was going on...matter of fact I was just there last week to see if there was anything new. I enjoy seeing your decorations. We're having a mild November so far, too.
