“Let’s Ride!” Although this probably not the “kind of ride” the phrase was intended for … but Happy Birthday Brenda

| August 12, 2023

Although by the time “we” get to these years, celebrating another birthday isn’t the same as it was when we were pinning tales on donkeys, wearing cone shaped hats and eating as much cake and ice cream as we wanted. I asked Brenda how she wanted to celebrate her birthday and it was more like […]

Brenda’s birthday is in August and after remembering her riding the small kids bike (a joke) and seeing that our granddaughters are both growing into bicycles, it seemed like a good idea to find something reasonably priced for her to ride with them (and me) — and kill two birds with one stone considering it […]

WordPress will finally be able to be updated to 5.4.1 and maybe eventually bring back a cache to speed […]
