An Encounter With A Bike...

Keith got his old 10 speed out of the shed, shinned it up, bought new tires to prepare it for an additional means of transportation...and suggested I try it out. My legs could not straddle the 26 inch bar, but out of determination, I got on and tried to pedal. I barely made it down the drive, managed to turn around...only to crash in the middle of the street!!! My elbow was scrapped, my shin was cut and my bottom was throbbing. The kids rushed over to me to offer their assistance.

ME offered to get me band-aides and Gideon suggested I get training wheels, so I would not fall...while my sweet husband laughed and suggested I try again!!!
