Vroom, vroom!

Once upon a time Dr T was supposed to get a Harley. This was back in November of 2004. He had taken all the necessary classes, picked out exactly what he wanted and days before the transaction was a done deal found out we were having a baby and got a mini-van instead.

Flash forward to present day. We went to a family BBQ yesterday. Where we saw, amongst others, Uncle Mike and Aunt Beckie. Tim always asks Uncle Mike about his motorcycles and rides he's taken, etc. Uncle Mike mentions that he's not riding quite so much anymore. He tells Tim he can borrow his Harley for an extended amount of time if he wants. After a couple months of using it if he wants to keep it they can make some sort of payment deal...

Tim is so excited about the prospect of a bike! Uncle Mike calls today and says he has some good news and some bad news. Bad news; the Harley isn't going to work out, he wants to keep it. Good news; it's not the only bike he owns so he wants Tim to try out the custom "chopper" instead!

I've rarely seen Dr. T this ecstatic about something, literally jumping up and down with anticipation! It's like seeing a little boy who gets exactly what he wants on Christmas morning.

I just want to take a quick moment to say "thanks" to all those who have aided Tim in getting these toys; the golf hook ups, pinball machines, foosball table, ping-pong accessories, motorcycles, etc. I mean where would I be without you? Probably best not to ponder that too long.
