This is fun !

We just got Mom ( she won't mind us saying ) age 87, a small motorized scooter
to get around on the sidewalks and pathways near her home. Yesterday was her first
"driving lesson". Athough she was a little apprehensive at first there was total joy in her
eyes at her new found mobility and freedom!
Hooray for these inventions and hooray for Mom !

Test drive !

What a great ride 'Mom' and I love the joy in your face. Be sure to not speed too much! ;-) What joy!

She still has a wonderful "joie de vivre" look about her. Hooray for the scooter.

Beautiful portrait of your Mom! Good for her! You can tell she's enjoying herself by her lovely expression! And I suspect she's thinking up new adventures with her new found freedom!

Tough lady, very nice capture of her expression. Like that of a five year old on his first bike. Pure joy.

Magnificent catch of her expression - she looks like a kid enjoying a roller coaster for the first time! Love it! Voted.
