Big Red Truck..........


I didn't get out to take shots yesterday as it was cold and wet.  I tried to get photos from the windows and that wasn't too bad.  Notice the layers in this photo.  The birch tree limbs are in front, the red maple is next and the redbud shrub is third.   Beyond the street and the electric pole sits the red truck.  It has a low bed on it so that it carries big items like machines or heavy beams.  Sometimes the driver brings things home on it and he takes it out the next day. At 5:30 in the morning it is started to warm up the engine and then it leaves its docking station climbing out of the driveway.  It takes about three shifts of the gears to get it to go up the street.  When we first noticed that it was  even being parked there, we thought we were having a storm as it has a very low roaring sound when it is in idle.
