A while back, I told a story about a camper that my grandpa had built on the back of his pickup truck.
They wanted to take a trip, but I guess they couldn't afford it. Grandpa said the only way they could do it was if they built a camper on the back of their truck (and this was in the days before there were campgrounds). Grandma said, "no way!" But then she hadn't counted on him doing such a good job on it.
This was in 1955, on their new International Harvester pickup.
As a technical detail, this print says it is a "Kodachrome print." I've never heard of that.
