I left the farm for Seattle with a friend who was headed in a different direction.  My thoughts were of all the years I had spent in this house truck and about the new owners who would continue it's life on the road.  I was also very aware of the fact that it was a long trip from Eugene, Oregon to Seattle Washington, and that I had left all my tools behind.  Anything I took with me in the truck on this trip would have to come back with me on a train.
