Glad Nana was only shaken up. That was ~ one ~ of those days, indeed.

Well... we'll see. I think it was a great year with lots of really good stuff getting done. I didn't do any of it, but I pointed at it and smiled.

I just do the "vision thing". :-)

I had an eight-wheeled tracked ATV that was called a PPT (for Passe Par Tout) for a while when I was a teenager. It looked like this one, but bigger... big enough to sit two side by side, front and back. It even had a cabin cover with doors, for winter driving...

Oh yeah, although my Mom grumbled some at having to buy new shoes so quickly, heh.

And sometimes, that's all you need to do.

Sometimes I also do the pointing-with-quizzical expression thing. :-)

God Bless her.. Laying there in the clothes basket all that time. I'm glad she wasn't hurt badly.

I don't think I ever heard my Grandma yell that loud, before or after...

Heh, I can just imagine...

Oh yeah, that thing was a lot of fun, especially in winter... we used to take it out onto the neighborhood ice rink and spin yogies, as we called it. That, and driving through the woods on the trails left behind after old train tracks had been pulled out.
