354 – Scooter

If I was a little kid, I think I’d be ready to give this scooter a blast, even thought the park looks like it could do with some drainage. Jump on the scooter, and zoom! The world’s your own. Of course it is all the time, it’s that most guys figure they need an excuse like a mid-life crisis before they buy a scooter.

When I was a kid we didn’t have such coolness to sit on and rock back and forth. We had some kind of framework – like a cube made up of wooden ladders – we called it a ‘jungle gym’. We’d put planks along the rungs to form platforms and next day we’d move them to make a fort, and next day to make a ship. Underneath the jungle gym there was a big patch of gritty sand. I don’t recall a single child being hurt in any way from falls or otherwise. Just plenty of opportunity of creative play. I’m unsure whether such things exist these days, there are scooters.

Manifesto
09. Every day learn something new.
24. Every day is a journey. Not a destination.
32. Every day have a laugh.
