 Out in a field about a mile off a road, there stands this 40's model truck. Every picture tells a tale, but this one spoke to me. Its imprint on time not only as a truck but as a name that probably stood strong during a time that received such controversy or was it overlooked. This picture tells a story of where our society was and how much we have evolved. Sometimes, if we just stop for a minute and look around, the changing world around us occurs so quitely that we dont hear it unless we are listening.

I like the weed growing up in front...a bit more levels adjustment would help.
