Birthdays

Today is my granddaughter Holly's 18th birthday. I remember when I had mine how important it was. Now you can do thing earlier but then there were many restrictions which no longer existed when you turned 18. Holly says one bad thing is you can not rent a car until you are 25. I never thought of renting a car so that did not matter. I just used the family car or truck. I was very good with the truck. You get to sit up higher and see the world from a different angle. I generally just rode my bike. I had a fancy bike. I had applied for it as the war was still on and got a really nice one with balloon tires that I would ride the two miles to work at my father's garage in the office and then at night he would put it in the back of the pick up and go home. I did not have to ride the bus that way unless it was snowing or rainy. Happy Birthday Holly.
