Are You Kidding Me?

 

Many of you know that Paul has worked for UPS as a driver for over 30 years. He's had a handful of routes in different towns. He's seen some interesting things over the years. 

He's seen deer wandering through yards. He's helped turtles across the road even though some were less than grateful. 

He's delivered to houses with cats, dogs - friendly and unfriendly, and there was the house with the potbellied pig -- that lived inside the house. 

About 3 years ago, Paul took a route in Northeastern CT, almost to the Massachusetts border. The route is rural and full of farms. We enjoyed many weekend rides to Woodstock and back during 2020 when there was nowhere else to go. 

It isn't unusual to get a text from him during the day. Sometimes it is of a sign that caught his eye, sometimes it is a garden, fire pit, or some other landscape feature that he might consider adding to Romanskiville. 

Today, this was the picture I received. Paul met him a few months ago and has named him "Roy" -- that's a story for another post. Roy is super friendly, very intrigued by the big brown truck, and while he has no problem jumping up in it, does seem to be terrified to jump out. Paul regularly has to scoop him up and set him back on the ground. 

Here's Roy!
