Meet Bertha, our new truck. She was so pretty last night when we first drove her home, then it rained. But she still looks glorious in the rain.
The people who owned her since she was brand new used her to pull a fully-loaded horse trailer to rodeos and barrel racing events. They did some shows where you dress up in the fancy breeches. I did some of that in high school on Arabians. Full dress shows. It was fun.

The people who had her new named her Bertha. The gal who drove her most almost cried when we were doing the final thing yesterday, but she liked it when I asked the truck’s name.

Nununda, Fae and I went to Mom’s the other day and spent the night. Fae loves it there, and Nununda got along just fine with the chihuahuas. I was real proud of her.
The two hour car trip didn’t bother her, either. She’s a pretty steady dog.
Middle of the night, Mom tells me Nununda got up in bed with her. I didn’t even know she was gone.
Mom felt hot, so got up and turned on the cooler, and walked Nununda down the hall. She got back up on my bed and was there in the morning.
Go figure.
She really liked my mom.
