During my ride home from work today, I was close to home and starting to fly down a hill when I spotted a little boy on the sidewalk selling lemonade. I yelled, "Lemonade?!" and when he said yes, I had to slow down and do a U-turn and try to get back up the hill. He said, "You are the first person on a bike to buy lemonade from me during my lemonade career." I said, "So you do this every summer?" and he said, "No, just this summer."He was 8-years-old and a real cutie. He made my day.

And I'm sure you made his day, too! No, wait. His career!

I'm going to miss our neighbor's daughter, who every summer sold all sorts of things at the foot of her driveway. DH and I would come back from a ride and end up buying cookies, lemonade, and these ice-slushy things ("What flavor is pink??").
