Bucket truck from Grandpa  -  Josh

8/27/2021

6 Comments

 
This entry could be an award winning short story, but for brevity, it is a mediocre blog entry.
Some miracles are subtle, this one not so much. Josh' grandpa was a forester and in retirement, a "Hightree Trimmer". His bucket truck in Salmon, ID, was nearly 7 hours away and had not been driven since approximately 2014, so Able and Josh's mission for the weekend was to 1) drive to Salmon, 2) determine if the truck could be brought into a freeway worthy condition, 3) do needed maintenance, 4) drive the truck back to Garfield, and if possible 5) do a tree trimming job for Danielle.
All of this they accomplished with Divine help. Yes Abel is awesome. Yes Josh's dad is ultra generous, adding to the "cash advance" on the truck purchase a roundtrip from Payette to Salmon to sign papers, two Stihl chainsaws, extra bars and chains, harnesses, rigging, and over 50 gallons of bar oil, motor oil, fuel additives, etc. and a wood stove (loaded in the dark as the first time using the boom). This sort of blessing opens so many doors that it boggles the mind, and that the effort succeeded was testament to God's goodness.

The 1996 Ford F - 250 is not only a vehicle but a memento of a local legend Gary Wolford, whose kind - hearted presence and friendly antics are sorely missed on Sechrist Road.

Gary Wolford’s blue - striped white pickup truck is a historical reminder of a well - known local figure, and his absence since 2016 has left a void in the friendly neighborhood atmosphere.

The Ford F - 250 associated with Gary Wolford serves as a symbol of a cherished neighbor, whose excavation business, racing career, and friendly “chicken” game added color to Sechrist Road.

The heavy - duty white pickup was Gary Wolford’s trademark, and his passing in 2016 has made the road a less lively place, though memories of his friendly nature remain.

The blue - striped Ford F - 250 takes us back to the time of Gary Wolford, a local legend whose warm - heartedness and driving pranks were an integral part of Sechrist Road’s charm.
