Change. . . . . .

Never say "change" to a 50+ year old woman,
it can mean many
things,
facial hair being one
of them.

But wait, I digress. . . . . . . . . . . .


This was Boyd on Sunday morning after it snowed all day on Saturday.


********************************

When I pulled into the garage on
Tuesday afternoon

(after driving home with my windows

down and breathing in lots of sunshine-filled fresh air)
I heard a small squeek!
More like a "whisper" really.
This "whisper" said,
in a most bold way:

"Hey, LADY!!
I could use a break here!"
Lo, and behold it was my lovely "Benny"
She was gasping for fresh
air.
She's been, dare I say "banished"

to the rear
of the garage, next
to Boyd's tools, a ladder ,
some
windshield wiper fluid,
and a bag of snow and ice melt.




I pulled her dusty
little body out of the garage,
I turned the key (oh joy!)
I revved the throttle . . . . gently,
and I putted away. Up the
street, I steered my little beauty.
With the delicious spring-like

air against my face,
I breathed
deep, and smiled.

aaahhhhhhhhh


Time for change




It's time for this bad-boy
to get over his
"front row seat"
in the garage
and let Benny take her
rightful
place "up front and center"

See ya next year. . . . .pal!

I agree with you! I am ready for this cold weather to go and the warm stuff to come in. What a wonderful way to enjoy the afternoon on your little Benny!
