Speaking of Ford...
Well -- I had no idea that the genesis of the pickup "truck" was so nuanced!
I guess I should be more tolerant of the Ford Maverick, Hyundai Santa Fe, Honda Ridgeline, etc.

1941 Ford half-ton pickup
1941 Ford one-ton express body
I am still gonna be less tolerant of monster pickups with full four-door cabs and "afterthought"-sized beds, though.
I am old, so I've earned my curmudgeon-hood.

ok, one more, then I gotta get to work...

Maverick...I love mine. I didn't realize one needs to be "tolerant" to a vehicle that someone else owns and drives. Falls into the nunya category.

NUNYA?? We used to say that back when I was in the AF.....hadn't heard that in forever. We'd say, "Nunya faceballs business"....only we didn't say faceballs

Vintage Advertisement 1072 - Smirnoff - 1973 by Johnny El-Rady, on Flickr
Apparently this wasn't one of the more successful Smirnoff ads of 1973.

So... last night there was supposed to be a pretty good chance of seeing aurora borealis in these parts. On all of the other recent nights with good odds of seeing the aurora, we had cloudy weather. Last night was perfect.
Only problem was -- no aurora, at least that I could see.
Didn't stop me from looking for about an hour, on and off, here and there in the night sky.
Sometimes with a camera and tripod.

lots of them here in the 'hood -- but I haven't seen one in the yard in the past year.
The photo above is from 10 years ago this month!?
Gorgeous animals. They make interesting noises, too.

One from here in town. Neighbor put up a trail cam because he kept hearing strange noises at night or early a.m.
