GREAT stories and pictures, Dennis! You really brightened my day.

Just think how busy you would have been WITHOUT the heart attack.

I love the graphic on the Mini.

Be well!

Busy?
No, the Keebler elves are busy.
Tharkun, you are off the charts!

Just an amazing set of toys.

Not truly Disney, but there is a guy in our Jeep Club who is all about Winnie the Pooh. Pictures on his Jeep, seat covers, a Pooh tattoo....

May seem out of place on a Jeep but it is hard to make fun of the guy as his hobbies include adventure racing, whitewater kayaking and mountain climbing. He just really likes the O'l Bear.

Have to admit, I find the humor in Winnie the Pooh to be hilarious. Tigger is my hero and Eyor is totally my Mother in Law.

Wow! Super cool toys.

I've almost bought a Mini Cooper, twice. Once when they first came out, and then here recently earlier this year. Couldn't quite do the deed. I greatly enjoy smaller, nimble cars as opposed to big cushy ones, so I really enjoy the Mini. They are such a blast to drive. Especially the 'S', as I see yours is. Get a Werks kit for that bad boy. \:D I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the Mickey Mouse, but hey, your car & your life. ;\)

Holy cow. Nice scoot! I've read about those. A very very sweet machine. Sorry to see you lose the V-Star, as those are nice bikes too. But that Spyder is in a whole different league of coolness. I think I'd need a black one. And an AxiomMan costume. I would fight the injustices of Bose speakers. ;\)

Hi Dennis,

I enjoyed your post a lot. I am glad that after the second heart attack, you decided that being on two wheels with the Yamaha V Star wasn't a great idea. Moving to the three-wheeled BRB/"Spydie" makes sense,... but a three-wheeled powered parachute ? !

John

I have a neighbor who is 93. He is building his 3rd ultralight. Sadly, he may never finish this one but he flew his first home built ultralight when he turned 80. They wouldn't ever give him a license for it, he feels due to his age, so he sold it for a powered parachute because the requirements were lighter (no pun intended). He found it too 'wobbly' so he bought two old Gyrocopters to make 1 good one. Didn't like that either so after a recent heart attack, he decided he will build yet another ultralight and fly it regardless of not being licensed. At 93, e just isn't really concerned with a jail sentence at this point in his life.

More power to him. I hope he doesn't get hurt, or hurt anyone else. I like how he hasn't given up on it.
