Fair Warning!

When I first started this blog, every time Travis saw me with the camera he'd say, "Are you bloggin me?" or "Don't you blog my picture." When he brought the deer horns in to show his dad he told me to take a picture of these and blog them. Well my camera's broken and I had to send it off to be repaired. So you have been warned, anything you may say may be blogged!

Well, since you don't have much to say today, maybe it's time for another "mailman story". This one is called, "The Vanishing Mail Truck"

One day on the mailroute I stopped at the very first house on the route. The mailbox was on the house next to the door and no more than 15 feet from the curb. I dismounted the with mail and walked up to the house, when I turned to go back to the truck, it was not there, vanished, capute, gone. I say to myself, "What the hey, where's my mailtruck?" I look to the left, nothing, to the right and there it was in the yard of the next house, stopped by a huge oak tree. Some how it had jumped out of 'Park' into gear and rolled off. I walk over inspect it and the front right bumper was bent back almost to the tire. Since it was not touching tire, I continued on my route till I got to this service station. I asked the guy if he had a sledge hammer, yes, he said in the garage. With seven or eight good shots I had it back to almost perfect. I thank the guy and went on my way, no harm done, not even to the oak tree. Just another day in the life of our U.S.
Postal Carriers.

Love Y'all,
Papa

I love your dad's stories.

You have another award coming your way. You're one of the best bloggers I know. It's not a jinx it's an honor, okay?

I, too, am loving your dad's stories!! He is a hoot. Sorry to hear about your camera. Hope you get it back soon!

Thank you for warning me. I firmly believe that anything I say SHOULD be blogged. Save it for your posterity, and when the family gathers together for holidays and special events, break out your "the important words of Aramie Judd" log.
I look forward to the next issue of "Papa the Mailman."
