New/ old scooter
In case you didn’t notice, a new scooter has become part of the family.
When it was apparent that Damon was going back to work, we ramped up our search for a new scooter to replace the wrecked one. Damon found one via Atlanta’s Craigslist and when my mom was visiting, he took my dad’s truck to Marietta to pick it up.
It is a very used Vento Zip, which is essentially the same as our previous TNG. We can use some of the old (good) TNG parts on the new Zip if we need to. It is all red and came with a full helmet to match.
The nice weather recently has allowed Damon to ride it to work often, and when the weather is consistently warm, I might take a turn or two on it. Fuller won’t get to officially ride it until he is much, much older, but he loves wearing the helmet.
It is great to be part of the scooter community again. It might not be a fancy Stella or Vespa, but it does its part in getting D around.
(Also, the warrant is out for the guy who hit Damon. So we are hoping that he is picked up for something so that another attempt at justice can occur.)
