Imagine my surprise when I opened my gift at the family Hanukkah party this weekend and my Dad gave me his Hess Training Van! Dad worked at Hess in the early 80s and always bought the Hess trucks. Of course, he let me play with them as a kid and most of the boxes are long gone, so they aren't worth what they could be, but it was a great surprise when he wrapped that one up for me.

All working parts, no cracking or bent parts and just a little discoloration... I think this will sit on my office bookshelf for many years to come to remind me why I work so hard during the week to enjoy the spring-fall weekends!


Thanks,
