I need to make this second entry today to address John's question in my Guestbook about the mystery of Corky's truck.

If there is any deep secret about Corky's truck, I don't know it. It's just a perfectly good white truck that's been left in the open sage by the Continental Divide about 12 miles north of town. Just a little off the highway in the middle of nowhere.

For a little over six months now.

I can understand why it was there all winter. Once the Hallowe'en blizzard hit, there was no way anyone could move that truck. But the big drifts have been gone for weeks (except for the last blizzard, but that's mostly gone now, too).

I guess I'm assuming its Corky's truck. I was told so by someone who should know, and it's on the ranch he manages.

And I know Corky's not still in it. Passed him on the highway this am.

So why is the truck still there?

Perhaps for the same reasons that elder son's Landcruiser has been sitting on the street with a flat tire since early March.

I will keep you all posted.
