Richard and I delivered my bicycle to the AAUW Garage Sale site.  It's an almost 40-year-old Schwinn 3-speed, in great condition.  I decided at my age, considering all the blood thinning medication I take, I have no business risking a broken bone or bleeding injury.  We'd have donated Richard's bike, too, but Rob wants it so he can keep up with Mary Linda.  She has a nice, newer, 10-speed.

I miss my 40-year-old Schwinn 10-speed. I first got a beautiful burgundy Schwinn "Continental" in 1973 or thereabouts, which was stolen. (That's an interesting story in itself, in how absolutely ignorant I was back then in taking the necessary precautions.) A few years later I replaced it with another Schwinn 10-speed, just plain old silver and I don't remember if it had a model name, and that thing lasted me about ten years. I really do want to have one again because I would absolutely ride it around the neighborhood or wherever. But it's never quite reached the priority list.



All the talk about Schwinn bikes reminded me of this:  our next door neighbor in Buffalo was a wonderful older lady named Gert.  When I was about 12 years old my friend and I were riding our bikes on the main shopping street in South Buffalo.  We had stopped at a store and who should come along but Gert.  She gave us a nice greeting.  I showed her my new bike and she exclaimed how nice it was.  Now if you remember, the word "Schwinn" was (is?) writtten cursive-style on the bike.  I guess the last two letters weren't clear so Gert said "and it's a "SCHWIRR!"


Funny.  I thought everyone knew what a Schwinn is :)

I win....we moved here in 1971....47 years ago.




Only 33 years for me.

That is a long time.


Yes, DR Jane.  I kind of wish I had moved to a bigger conco years ago, but it is nice that I no longer have a mortgage payment.

Not having a mortgage is a big bonus.

DR George we could have used your skills today assembling our new bench, that is if your skill extend to assembling without directions.

There were a multitude of various screws and only one shown on the partial directions where to put it.

The bench is at our front door and looks great, even better with our bronze girl sitting on it.

We are very happy that it now looks nice walking up to our front door.  We think our planter looks better than the ones with live plants.

Break from Vince Mendoza and listening to one of the greatest albums ever made - Bookends.  As fresh and relevant today as the day it was released - on Blu-Spec 2 CD - not sure what the difference is if any to a Blu Spec CD.

Yes, DR Jane.  I kind of wish I had moved to a bigger condo years ago, but it is nice that I no longer have a mortgage payment.

I'll have my condo paid off in about 4 years!  Can't wait! :D

I might not have gotten it put together correctly.  I'm pretty good about reading directions and really do prefer to be able to refer to them.
