MY BIKE

Today my photography class got canceled due to a major gas leak somewhere around the school. I was hanging with Vogan, and we wondered what to do. We were watching "That '70s Show", and it made me think that I wanted some new glasses. As this show takes place in the '70s I figured that the only place that I could get some old looking glasses was at a thrift shop.
We loaded into his truck and went around to the addresses that Google told us thrift shops were located. Google failed us twice in a row right off the bat. The third thrifty was a success, and I found a shirt that was a winner. It is a UTA shirt. It is really cool i think since it has two pockets, shoulder straps, and is pressed with two seams in it.

I have digressed. The fourth location had nothing, but Deseret Industries in Sugarhouse was golden. I walked downstairs, and almost didn't believe what I saw. At first I said, "That is a girl bike. I wish that bike was not pink. The seat even has flowers on it.", but then quickly realized that it was painted pink, therefore, it could be painted something else. I am pretty sure that I will be painting it white, but if any ofyou have suggestions I am willing to hear them.


No feet

I think you should have bought that for your sweet little sister that wants a bike more than you. It is obviously for a girl.

Chris had a bike just like that when he was a little boy (he takes pride in the fact that he bought it himself), but it was blue. Maybe you should paint it red since you are a Ute.

I'm impressed. It takes me back...banana seat, high handlebars.. you'll be the envy of all the little girls in your area.

I think you should leave it pink. I want to know how much you paid for it.

Ha Ha! You are riding a girls bike! It is sweet though so I don't blame you.

The Sugar House Deseret Industries for some reason always has the tresaured finds.
