Scooter in a Scooterless Day

The Vespa sat at home while I drove the Honda Odyssey to the dealer for it’s annual Pennsylvania safety inspection.  One of the service people rode their Ruckus scooter to work which provided a maintenance dose of scooterness.

I’ve always admired the looks and capabilities of the 49cc Honda Ruckus.  I can imagine one in my garage.

Aside from that brief glimpse my day would play out without a ride on two wheels.  It’s something every rider must deal with from time to time.

Perfect Vespa Landscape

Rain passed through the valley  washing away some of the heat leaving a fine glow on the wet roads.  I forced myself to appreciate the glowing landscape and pull the van off the road for a photograph.  Standing in the middle of the road I was imagining the Vespa parked in that glow, headlight creating a poor of warm light on the wet pavement.

Not going to happen though.

Odyssey in the Sticks

It’s hard to imagine a blog build around life with the Honda Odyssey van.  I’m certain I could find ways to photograph the vehicle in a compelling manner but is there enlightenment behind the wheel of a minivan?

It was good to stop and look around, appreciate the evening, and think about tomorrow.

Wait.  I have to take the dog to the vet in the morning.  There’s more Odyssey in the Sticks for me…
