Day 139 CJSM


Day 139

 

 

An afternoon drive in the baby blue convertible

when Carl & Candy noticed Beth was awfully

quite in the backseat---only because she was

leaning out of the car to watch rocks bounce

off the wheels

 

Our pleasures were sure enough “simple”. Live! Love! Laugh! What a great life and time!

Sunday afternoon seemed reserved for a car ride; I had to have a convertible (Cool). I did!

With the top down and Beth in the back seat, off we’d go, making an adventure.

One fine sunny afternoon, little Beth got awfully quite in the rear seat. Candy looked back to find our precious cargo leaning over the side of the vehicle watching the road below as rocks from the shoulder flew into the tires. Great fun!? Thank God we learned a lesson that day.

It was our girl’s last ride in the back seat when the top was down.

Of course, my parents told the same story on me. When my uncle “Wild” Bill was screaming down the road and I was about three years old, Uncle glanced in his rear view mirror to see me, his only nephew (at the time) crawling out onto the trunk lid of his convertible! Wow! Déjà vu!

Beware! What goes around, comes around! Live and learn---I…hope!

 

Ah! Cookie Jar Sweet “Hang on” Memories!
