“Here ‘SHE’ comes on her very own Scooter”

“How’s this… for some “High Flying” travel in the 1940’s?”

This next PHOTO… is just an old antique scooter in color – – not mine – – but so that my “Grand-Daughter” will know – – that  – “when I was a little girl – – everything was not only… all in black and white” – –  – – when she was very little – – and  I would watch old  movies – – and they were all in “black and white”  – – SHE ask me…  “Is that the way you remember everything… only black and white?” – It was difficult to explain – – about the world always in color – – but the “FILM Industry” during the WWII – –  had to economize – – like everyone else in those days – – and that is the way it was.

That is “baby TOMMY” with me… and behind  us – – the window is really the focal point of these PHOTOS – – as one day  – – “TOMMY”  did climb up and into the “window  sill”  – – and just too close to the “Window screen”  – – “TOMMY and screen” fell out and to the ground below.

“Emergency” vesicles were called… and “TOMMY” was taken to the HOSPITAL – – nothing wrong with him – – nothing broken – – no damage… because – – for two to three days prior – – we had continuous rain – – and the ground was so wet and soft – – all he needed was a good bath!

This is a real good “close-up” of TOMMY” – – He sure does look good and healthy – – after taking such a fall out of the window – – the terrible and decrepit condition of the window screens.

BUT… that was but only the first of many “falls” for TOMMY – – so I am guessing that is “WHY” he is tagged with the  nick-name, “MR.  WONDERFUL” – –  – after all – – to still have  the very same big smile and good looks – – and a superior brain – – what more could a guy… ask for?

As you can see… I always have some “FAST and FURIOUS” transportation – – to keep  up with little…  TOMMY – – who is now – – today … over six feet tall – –  and still keeping everyone on their toes – – as to what he will be doing … NEXT!  D.V.
