The Great Adventures of Fred
Meet Fred:
HI! I'm Fred!! I live in a truck bed!!
Allow me to tell you a little bit about Fred. I can’t believe that we found Fred, but we did. I was picking up Janelle from her place, and I drove through the alley. This gem was just sitting there next to a dumpster. I was immediately drawn to him. I just wanted to throw him in my truck right then, but I wasn’t sure just what to do. I mean, I’m the guy that had a Christmas tree up in my house, decorated, for 4 years. And I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. So, I decided to see what Janelle said.
So when we get in the car, I just back up the alley. She asks whats up, and I tell her I have to show her something. She starts to turn around, and I say, “Don’t turn around (cause you’re gonna see my heart breakin’)” (OK, so I didn’t say the last part that time, but I have before, and I thought about it). Anyway, we pull up next to him, and I see she has the exact same immediate reaction I do. She asks why I haven’t already put him in my truck. So, in he goes.
Well, I just left him there for the day, then I showed up to my business meeting Tuesday morning and got asked about him during the meeting, where I explained the story to all of them. That is when I decided that Fred would live in the bed of my truck. Now I have decided to tell you all about his adventures. Someday Fred might get his own website, but for now, he’ll live here.
On Fred’s first full day in his new home, he got to take a trip to my brother Tim’s house where he met my nephew, Ahren, and nieces Lydia and Annie. Here are some photos I took to commemorate the event.

And possibly my favorite, Annie making her "happy" face, Ahren in his football stance, and Lydia just watching.
There will be more to come soon on the Great Adventures of Fred, so stay tuned!!
