Default Never to old

Today I went to my mothers house to do a little yard work. I told Her to come to the window an look at the new car.Nothing would do her but go outside to see it. Oh Mama is 92 yrs. old. To shorten this story she wanted a ride an hour later we returned. She had a ball. just wanted to share this.

I took my Mom for a ride in the S one time. She was about 82......I don't think she enjoyed it all that much.

My folks have not shown an interest. It may be because once they got in, they would probably not be able to get out.

My neighbor turns 86 in another week. I take him often on rides, the faster I go into corner's the better he likes it.

I took my mom for a ride in the CR before I deployed. she hated it. reminded her of my dad and the way he used to drive his 440 Dart...














At least I don't have to worry about her asking to borrow it

My old man always says, "why don't you shift when you're supposed to."

Used to take my Mom to her Dr. appointments in the S all the time. She was in her late eighties and enjoyed it. She is gone now and I miss doing that.
