What was different? You should have saw my Grandfathers face when I pulled up. You should have seen him get up and go when I told him "lets go for a ride". He's never moved that fast in a long while. We did some wildlife safari tour there and we were amongst lions and bears, no no tigers, and it wouldn't have been the same, not even close. Offered to pull a stump out of the ground for my Uncle. He was going to have to hire a tractor. Just yanked it out for him. Everything is different in a Hummer.
