A scooter...

To die for! (image)

Yes, it's a memory of mine. At one time I did have an all metal scooter, but not as nice as this one. And I also had a wooden scooter. Made with a length of 2x4, some old roller skates and a little help from dad. The true test of any of our wheeled creations was a trip down the 14th Street hill. Scary! Scooters, wagons, tricycles, bicycles and roller skates. Anything that could roll was tried on that hill. And any time during the day, you could spot half a dozen kids trudging up that hill, dragging some sort of vehicle behind them. All 'wannabe' heroes.
