“Another day colder but deeper in sweat…” Just before the town truck came. Seven-fifteen, this morning. Lyrics by Lance Mannion and Ann Bartow, with love to Tennessee Ernie Ford.

Does a truck come by to take the bags away?

Here they have the leaf-sucking truck, which I have to admit is one of my favorite pieces of municipal machinery. It's right up there with street sweepers and snow plows for coolness.

Rana,

Funny, I was just thinking the other day how much I miss the water trucks of my childhood, the ones with the sprays on either side that would hose down the gutter...those were cool.
