RED, WHITE AND BLUE

He fits right in with the old joke about the Red, White and Blue. Redneck, White-trash and Blue Collar. God help us. I can't figure out whether this boy's a red-neck or a genius, though.

I'm right there with him, truth be told. I remember digging a pool in our little front yard when I was about 10 years old. By the time mom caught my brother, Wayne, and I, we had dug a crater the size of a small car and it was overflowing with muddy water. I always thought she went a little overboard chasing us around the yard like that but now I'm a father to 5 sons.

We got off easy.

Yet another reason that everyone needs a pickup truck.

That looks like something I would have done as a kid. Probably wouldn't be alive to tell about it though.

If anyone needs me I'll be out in my truck....LoL

Wow - good ole BOY ingenuity. I am always amazed at what my boys can come up with when they put their minds to it. I don't always like the final outcome, especially when it involves my house or yard, but I admire their efforts!

You do what you gotta do to stay cool!
Makes me think I should buy a truck! My boys would love it.
