This past weekend was a blur of activity, including buying a truck, gardening, and building gardening accessories.

Alas, the truck has no name, and we are at a stalemate. Click the link to read more and make truck name suggestions.

First off, truck talk. This past weekend, (well, Thursday if you wanna be a stickler for facts) we traded in Biatch, our aged and trusty blue Mercury, for a truck.

The truck is a used preowned 2006 Toyota Tacoma. It's exactly what we need: a dependable vehicle with a giant trunk, good for camping trips, carting stuff around, and carrying sheets of wood, drywall, etc. from the neighborhood hardware store.

Nanc and I are at an impasse over the name. She fancies "Chuck the Truck", while I favor "Steely Dan." Do you have a preference or a new and fantastic name? Exercise your democratic right to vote by leaving us a comment below. Your vote could be the tie-breaker!

Also, there are fleeting pix of the new triangle garden box that we're building in the backyard. It's not quite finished, but it will more than double the space we are allocating for the square foot garden.
