John Deere, ATV and Kawasaki Voyager

My brother had purchased an ATV for really cheap and had to do a few minor fixes with it and he can easily turn around and sell it for much more than he paid. My dad is infamous with purchasing boats and making a profit on it. My family loves four wheeling and out it came. Everyone learned how to drive a clutch. My parents own 5 or 6 acres. I learned how to drive a car in this back yard. Watching my children ride brought back a stream of memories. We always had 3 wheelers or mini bikes or something to enjoy while growing up.

Please look the other way! You will see children riding with no helmets, hand gear, or proper clothing and shoes. It's on private land. (When we rode at home everyone has their helmets, gloves and shoes on)Scouts honor.

My nephew has a very expensive habit. When his milk machine is not around one of the easiest ways to keep him happy and put him to sleep is on the lawn mower. With gas prices over $4.25, I would say it is a pretty expensive habit.

My dad used to ride a bike when he and my mom first met. He found this motorcycle for a great price and bought it to save on gas money for his frequent commutes to Vermont and back. It is older but it is in great shape and is comfortable for those long drives. Riding just around town makes this bike just too heavy to maneuver. Mr. Incredible gave all of the kids a ride. This was the first time my niece and nephew rode the bike on the road.
