‘Don’t make me get Bubba’

‘Don’t make me get Bubba’

Please don’t think for a second that we’ve run out of family stories.

It’s just that Farmer Gary has this “Bubba” story he’s been wanting to tell in the worst way.

(You may notice I just set up the old gag Abraham Lincoln used for describing his dancing abilities. “I wanted to dance with Mary in the worst way – and I did.” Although with Gary’s accent, maybe it should be “wurst way”?)

This audio clip is a tiny bit longer than intended, as son James had mentioned he was hoping to hear his dad’s laugh on one of these clips.

So here goes:

In case you’re as ignorant as I am about truck terminology, here’s the sort of vehicle referenced in Gary’s story:

This story is from around the turn of the century … maybe later, maybe earlier. The local trucker is still in business. There’s been no further word from Bubba.
