Grab a coffee, here is my story when I stopped in Pense, Saskatchewan.  About 30 years ago I was making a trip across Canada, it was the first of November and the first  Arctic storm had hit.  I had driven over 800 miles from Thunder Bay, it was minus 45 Fahrenheit and I was low on fuel.  Pulled up to the Pense Hotel, no front desk so I had to go in the bar, the bartender said they had 2 rooms, I gave him my VISA card and he said cash only.  I asked if the bulk station had diesel fuel and he did not know.  I made the decision to keep driving, 135 miles later I pulled into Swift Current after 20 hours on the road, it was now minus 48 Fahrenheit, I was very cold, hungry and super low of fuel but I got a room.  I emptied my pockets and found I still had the room key from Pense.  In all my travels I have never seen a joint with Room #1.  I still have the tag, it is on my 1951 Mercury grain truck that I bought in Saskatchewan.

Absolutely Beautiful!!!!
When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

Built the first day of production.  Paint combo was deleted in August, not sure why, not all that offensive given color trends at that time.

I kind of like the paint scheme! A subtle color matching.
