Hitchhikin'



The beautiful weather yesterday convinced me that I should ride the scooter my wonderful brother let me borrow for the summer to work. After work I realized I needed to jet over to Home Depot (again) for more supplies to complete my most recent project. Just as a side note- it is never a good idea to go to home depot on a scooter, I developed some incredible balancing skills trying to get everything home. But I digress. On my way home, laden down with bags, a group of homeless men thought it would be funny to try and get me to pick them up. They stuck there thumbs out and when I started to laugh they proceeded to chase me down the street. Who knew homeless people were so fast?
But the real question is- how much can the scooter hold? Apparently just me, some pruning shears, 3 tarps, 25 feet of hose, twine and about 15 pounds of spackle.
