Anyone for a road trip? I see Nancy at A Rural Journal and Pat the talented Artful Diva have been out riding their tricycles. Perhaps we can hit the roads together. Oh, the places we could go.
I remember the day my uncle showed up at my house with a tricycle. There would be no stopping me now. Off I go to explore the neighborhood. I was a real daredevil back then riding with no helmet.
Last Saturday it was my DH who showed up with this tricycle. I sent him to the grocery store and he detours to a yard sale. A year ago I passed one by at an antique store and regretted that action. I guess I talked about it a lot.
Before converting to black and white I applied Kim Klassen's texture Jay and Nancy's texture Deanna.

I love it! I have come across some sweet bikes and regretted not purchasing. But often the price is sky high and asking too much..
ReplyDeleteHaha! I think we may have started a new meme! Love your trike! Brring, brring!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure glad people love trikes! What fun these have been. I think I'll start looking for an adult sized trike with a basket to hold the groceries for me! Love your shot and texture. Happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetheart of a husband to do that!!! The photo is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThat was very sweet of your husband! Neat picture too!
ReplyDeleteAs I said at Nancy's blog -- never had those kind of wheels growing up = I like this one style a lot - great use of textures..

Oh I so remember my big red tricycle. Sooo big that my parents had to put "blocks" on the pedals so I could reach them until I grew into it. So wish I had a photo of it.
ReplyDeleteThis gave a really nice vintage look. Suits your draw toward antiques and such. I have a couple pics of me on a trike when I was little. I need to ask my mom for those. Can't remember what color, but I hope it was blue-somehow I think it might have been red. have a great day.
ReplyDeleteLove your editing - that would make for a very slow road trip - lol!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely vintage photo look...no training wheels required.
