Sassy Sixties Scooter Chicks

For many of us, King’s Landing represents a major change in lifestyle. The obvious differences for me were switching from a car-dependent, suburban house dweller, fretting about pool, garden and keeping the house in good shape to a down-town denizen, who can walk almost everywhere and only has to worry about switching off the gas burner or cleaning lint from the dryer filter.

What I did not anticipate was how liberating that would be in other ways. Yes, that’s really me, sitting with my far more adventuresome friend on her scooter, having just returned from a jaunt down to Tickets Tonight at the north end of Burrard. See my review of Annie Get Your Gun. I will provide the link in a later posting.

I have never been wild about high-speed activities - except I love rollercoasters – and my family has never been able to figure that one out. I’m the person who gave up down-hill skiing because of pain –in my jaw.

So even though the scooter is not really a high speed vehicle –chug-chug-chug up the hills- apologies to Linda – this may seem like a trivial accomplishment to you, but for me –it ‘s a giant step forward.

Cyclopaths and scootering for me so far,– other new lifestyle changes to be described in the future.
