    From the right place/right time department? ;-)

    While returning to my truck parked beside my local tobacco shop (YES, I'm still trying to quit, but its HARD??!!) I noticed what looked like one of those rubber mudflap things from the back of semi truck trailers laying on the ground beside their dumpster. A few further steps confirmed that's exactly what that was, with the name of some truckstop place in Florida on it, so I kicked at it to see if I wanted to toss it in the back of the truck just for the h*ll of it.

    Doing *that* revealed not one, not two, but *all three* of these (filthy dirty, but consider the source/location?!) doormats (I guess?) laying on the ground underneath it...?

    So all four pieces got picked up and tossed in the back of my truck with practically no further thought nor examination. Pics here are the mats after simply shaking the dirt and truck-flap grunge off then lining 'em up on the driveway right after I got home -- gimme a day or two and I'll hose/brush at 'em a little and I'm kinda guessing they very well might clean up remarkably well...?

    Aren't they FUN?? ;-) ;-) ;-)

    EDIT the next evening -- I've just changed out all but the first pic to show the mats better. None have been actually 'cleaned' yet beyond further brooming, but I think the indirect afternoon sunlight does the photos better...? ;-) :-)

      New pics just added to show them a little better, without actually cleaning 'em yet...

      Yes dav2no1, I noticed (and giggled at) that one, too...is there *anything* left in the world that people won't try to sell more of by slapping that word 'vegan' on its label??? (I've gotta get some vegan tires for my truck, and I know I need a vegan crescent wrench to go with my metric one...?)
