    Saw the above pic of an Ariel Square Four based chopper on some random site, and it resurrected some distant childhood memories. One of our neighbors ("Uncle" Ernie) had an Ariel Square Four with a double adult sidecar. With Uncle Ernie driving, my Dad on the pillion and my Mum and "Aunty" Lynne in the sidecar with me and Lynne's daughter Angie on their laps, off we'd chug 50 miles to Brighton for a day out by the seaside. Not bad a bad load for a 1950s 1000cc bike ! Looked sort of like this pic I found.

    Great MEMORY! Too bad, you don't have photo of all of you ready to ride.

    The more I thought about it, you guys riding around would have been perfect characters for the Midsomer Murders series with John Nettles. Some great viewing of the UK countryside.

    Yes, I forgot to mention - Mum made a Thermos flask of tea and cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off for us to enjoy on our stop along the way in quaint English country villages. Such fond memories of having our picnic in a manicured flower garden, murdering an old lady and joyfully trundling away into the distance.

    Propane tank 'pumpkins': I took this pic myself today. Can you guess from where?

    There's already been one guess of East Lansing, MI, which was a good one, but incorrect. We are indeed in MI, though. Think ART.

    I think neither -- US automobiles were large in those days, and steering wheels were enormous, as power steering was extremely uncommon.

    Oh, speaking of automobiles -- Mrs. H & I were at our favorite ice cream place (in Charlestown, NH) Sunday afternoon. A gorgeous but unfamiliar to me cream coloured little roadster came in and parked just to one side of my decidedly uninteresting little Subaru. The car was driven by an older man with a similarly annuated woman in the passenger seat (RHD). I could not recognise the vehicle, so I went over to look and said as much to them.

    Said the man "It's a 1947 Rover!".
    It really was gorgeous.
    I refrained from snapping a piccie of it (although I doubt that they'd have minded), though.

    Dang. I just googled and found the very car!

    I guess they collect Rovers (and Land Rovers, too).
    I note, wryly, that our arborist, who lives on this side of the Connecticut River, collects Land Rovers, too.
    Must be some weird Yankee thing. ;)
