Cast of Characters - the Inanimates

It's time to introduce you to the inanimate objects I'll write about from time to time. 

Say hello to my bicycle. 

Hello bicycle! 

I decided to take up riding a few months ago, primarily for the exercise. As Rowland ages, walks with him were no longer anything remotely resembling a workout. Something needed to be done! Last fall I started walking by myself (after walking Rowland), then bought a stand for my old bike so I could pedal in the garage once it was too dark to walk after work.  As the longer days returned, it was clear I needed a new bike so I could get outside to ride. Michael did some searching and found a couple of options nearby at Sharing Wheels Community Bike Shop. The bike I ended up with wasn't one he had seen online, but it's perfect for me! He did some upgrades and it rides like a dream. This bike has made a big difference in my life already!

The next important inanimate object is our trailer. 


Hello trailer!

After several years of not camping (pandemic, you know), we decided to sell the Aloha and get a modern trailer with a few more comforts. We found this 2012 model and snapped it up! It's got a great layout and is perfect for the two of us and Rowland. 

We're looking forward to many camping adventures ahead. Note the bicycles on the back...

There are other inanimate objects I've been known to observe in the wild - bollards and cones to be precise. You never know when they'll show up. Sometimes they even hang out together!


Best friends for life!
