John and I are practicing our “trailer trash talk.” He emailed Wells Fargo to ask them a question, and they replied (by email) telling him to call them (we don’t have reliable cell coverage out here). This led to silliness as we envision the email exchange trying to tell WF that we can email, but not call them.

In our best hickbilly accents….

Ah wood call yew, but ah do not have a phone. The pickup truck ran it ovah last night. Ah wood drive into tawn to go to a pay phone, but mah trailuh does nawt have wheels. Please send me some wheels, an’ I will go into tawn to call yew. Otherwise, replah to mah dam email.

…. it’s probably funnier in person.

Cathouse_blues made and sent these to me. They arrived in yesterday’s mail, which was totally awesome! It’s been about 3 weeks since we got mail, so they’ve probably been sitting in South Dakota for a while.

It’s a bit hard to see, but they are cross-stitched (by hand!) motorhomes in green and violet. Absolutely adorable, and they go very nicely with our kitchen decor!
