Farewell to Ole' Blue


September 29 - Yes, it is true, Charlie has sold his old blue pickup truck. The truck with over 250K miles and more rust than paint showing. The truck that Keith left his mark on the bed while it was in ND. The truck that left Jackson and Charlie stranded along Rt. 70 with a U-Haul enroute to Keith's new home. Persistence paid off for the young man that kept coming back wanting to buy the old truck. Charlie had 'OLE BLUE' loaded with brush to dump at the farm on Tuesday. On his way to the farm the brakes went out so he turned around and brought 'OLE BLUE' home. Upon inspection he determined the truck needed back brake lines. That night the guy stopped back and said he would pay the price Charlie was asking, even after he knew about the brakes. Charlie fixed the brakes the next day, drove the truck to the farm to unload the brush then cleaned all his 'treasures' out of the truck.
