No Harm Done
I’m happy to report that no injuries were sustained when the old folks went Labor Day wild and strapped on their inline skates for a little free wheeling adventure on the bike trail. And that’s even after installing Becky’s new wheels so she could go…. FASTER! Actually, the intention was to make it easier, and in this the endeavor was a success, but the other was a side effect. It’s just that it was a PERFECT day, low (well, low for Kansas) humidity, 80 degrees, a breeze, sunshine, lots of noisy but unseen insects. Okay, we saw a few mosquitoes, but not too many.
Then we went to Sonic and she had raspberry limeade and I had cherry limeade.
Afterwards, I mowed the yard. Whoopee.
She made a great taco salad for supper, and that was our Labor Day! Tomorrow, back to the salt mines.
UPDATE: Becky’s mom broke her hip this evening. We don’t think she was rollerblading. Status unknown at present.

mmmm, sonic. sure did get that afterall. just a few weeks after getting back from kansas i visited modesto for a little drive-in action.
glad you kids didn’t hurt yourselves on those steep hills in lawrence (i’m scared of a few of them.)
haven’t been blading in a quite a long while. well, now i can’t just strap ’em on and go out the door, i have to find some flat land before i do that.
