A "Model T" Story

Mom and Lynda were talking one day and mom shared a story about the first time she drove a car. While Lynda was at the San Dimas Western Parade she saw a Model T . So she asked the owner if he would give mom a ride if she wanted to ride. He said "Sure", so the Tuesday before Christmas he came to give her a ride.

It was a surprise. Lynda only told mom that someone was going to come and that she needed to be ready for the surprise at 1:00 in the afternoon.When Grandpa Ryan was watching a grapefruit field in Texas and he let mom drive for the first time. She was excited and really nervous. She drove on a dirt road that no one ever drove on . After she got the wheel, who should come but another car. Her dad told her she had to hurry so put her foot on the gas and almost ran into the garage. Needless to say she learned to drive and liked it! She loved it and had such a great time.

Shane Has Leave

Shane came to visit a few days before Christmas. We don't get to see him very often so we were glad he came to visit. He always has interesting stories to tell!!
