Irish Rover!

 Hi 

We had the Irish Ayes for the boat and Elvis and Mingo for the camper, well I think an appropriate name for the trike is….(dramatic pause). The Irish Rover!!  LOL

OK then,  Yesterday I took the Irish rover for her first , out of town, adventure.  we went to the Neponset River Bike trail.  This trail start in Mattapan and goes for about 4 mile to Tenean beach in Dorchester.  It meanders along the Neponset River and is quite beautiful.

I had a great time.  Packed a lunch and lots of water.  Brought my cameras and off I went!  Awesome day.












New Adventures

 A long time ago, when my children were little and there were no GPSs, I would get lost going places. (Sometimes)   I would never admit that I was lost, I would just tell them it was just an adventure.  Eventually my children grew up and realized  that I was actually lost , but remembered the adventure!!!  :)

Over the years I have had many “adventures”  driving,  kayaking, boating and camping.  Well now it is time for triking!   When Gene got the scooter to use while waiting for the prosthetics  for his legs, we ordered an electric trike for me so we could explore the area together.  ( I could not keep up with him walking!!).   The Plan of course was that once he healed, he would have the trike and I would be a Ebike or another trike.  Well……

Now it is just me and I still want to explore and have adventures.  I have outgrown the area around Union Point and want to explore.  I bought a trike rack and Katie helped me. Put it together. (I really just passed her the tools). 



The very next day my adventures began!!   Stay tuned!!!

One Year








It has been a year and a half  year since I said Good bye to my loving husband, friend and confidant.  My person.  It has been hard, sorrowful, enlightening, and insightful.  I miss Gene.  I talk to him often.  I have also learned that I am strong.  It is finally time for me.  I have great children and granddaughters.  I have a great job and wonderful people that I work with.  I have made some interesting , strong and intelligent people.  I have come to like myself alone and am not afraid to do things and go places by myself.
