I'll go where you want me to go

Blogging world, meet my bike, named by miss annie stevens as Penelope Joy, and affectionately called "Penny."

on the streets of Walla Walla, Wa

She has traveled all over the southern half of Washigton, cruised through Oregon, soaked up the sun in California, survived 2 winters in Utah and is now safe in the desert with me in Vegas. She arrived this last weekend riding piggyback of Matt's Xterra. This is a sweet reunion.
seen here on 7th north in provo, getting new ipod speakers

She has taken me to work, on afternoon lunches to Jdawgs, on sunday night strolls with Colin and Kelly Jo, shes carried groceries in her basket, annoyed others with her bell, and loved sharing the Gospel. Penny Joy is a good bike.

My favorite memory of your bike is when you left it on Jordan's front line and you came back and it was gone. Soon word spread that it was stolen and everyone was sad. And then we realized that Daniel (I think) put it in the backyard to save it from thieves. What a great memory.

i think you meant "lawn" which is fine, and it wasnt daniel, it was his brother mike. And i cried and cried about that. That is not a good memory kristine, i dont know why you would bring that up.

I cannot believe you posted that picture of us!!!! True, it probably shouldn't have been taken in the first place but who could resist when utilizing such an amazing vehicle to pick up a few things at the grocery store. We were only trying to help. Penny feels neglected, she thinks she's been replaced by something maroon with an engine. How could you?

holla! thanks for the shout out, girrrrl.
p.s. my "word verification" to post a comment seems really long.
"btapjxve". that's what it says. isn't that kind of long and unnecessary?
