The Vespa Update
Sadly, there’s a chance that this Play-Doh scooter I made will get more time in the sun than my real scooter.Â
Two weeks ago I retrieved the real Vespa from the scooter hospital where it had some body work done. I took it to Sarah’s parents’ house because the condo association didn’t think a little trailer would look good in my parking space. (Darn urbanites!) Not wanting to see it peed on any more, we decided to keep it safe and sound in Sarah’s parents’ garage.
The trouble is, their house is nearly an hour away which means that scooter trips will be Deliberate Outings, not quick fun trips to the store. It also means that we won’t be taking it to Martha’s Vineyard this weekend. (Bright side? No getting stuck in the wrong state or having it pushed over by strangers.)

I’d offer to let you park it in our space, but the trash man might drop the dumpster on it. And people (or squirrels) will most certainly pee on it.

The solution? Move to Mystic, where you can use it all the time! Simple!
