    Smile What pictures make you smile?

    Not sure why but I love this picture, yes, it is an English trike, I guess around 1950/1960's era, not sure if you had similar out in the US.


    I never owned one, due to the fact I did not do very well at school, too much messing about.

    Anyway, for some reason or other I decided to have this picture on my desktop and it makes me smile, so much so I sat looking at it this morning and decided to start my new cycling regime.

    It worked, so now starts my cycling once again after finally getting off various medication. It was only 4 miles but I smiled from beginning to end.

    So, what makes you smile when you see certain pictures, can be totally random.

    "How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
    David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

    Random babblings and some stuff to look at.

    This painting made me smile when it greeted us in the reception area in December as part of our church's program to display the artwork of local artists. IIRC the artist is Micheal Onilwyn.

    This is my desktop background. I can't remember the artist's name, but it's perfect.

    Not sure why it's showing up so small, though.

    Tangentgirl, I think you might have copied it as a thumb nail?

    Yes, it is full of fun.
