Ok...Once I had to work down in SW Texas and I drove a bunch of equipment down alone. I was on one of those farm roads they have in TX, just a number and a long straight small road, and I saw a tumbleweed spinning down the road in front of me...and I chased it down and tossed it in the back of the truck.
I brought it all the way back home to Maine, spray painted it white and I had it for years!! It sat in the corner of my living room for a very long time and was a great conversation piece for all us Mainahs, most of whom had never see none of them thangs before!
Cue laughter now...
You'd be laughing harder if I told you about the Texas dinosaur...
