RETRO BLUE

RESCUED-JUST IN TIME!!!  I HEARD THE SCRAP METAL MAN WAS COMING, BUT WAS ABLE TO RESCUE THE CUTEST OLD BIKE FROM A JUNK PILE.   OUR FRIENDS WERE KIND ENOUGH TO LET ME PULL THE OLD "BUTE" FROM A TANGLED MESS & PUT IT TO GOOD USE. 


                                        CAN YOU SPOT IT?


IT MIGHT LOOK LIKE AN EASY GRAB, BUT THE HANDLE WAS WEDGED BETWEEN HEAVY JUNK.  IT TOOK SOME DOING, BUT I WEASELED HER OUT OF THERE.


SINCE ONE WHEEL WAS UNBOLTED, I HAD TO CARRY IT!
                        
                       HERE IS A PICTURE OF MY GARDEN, BEFORE.


                                        THIS SHOT IS THE AFTER.



TOO CUTE, IN IT'S RETRO BLUE.  THE GRANNY STYLE FENDERS ...


                                      ...AND THE CHAIN GUARD


BUT WHAT TO DO WITH THE SEAT???  I HAVE TO THINK ON THAT ONE. HMMM.


MY NEXT TASK IS TO TRY & ACQUIRE THE WICKER BIKE BASKET I SOLD IN MY GARAGE SALE LAST YEAR!  STUPID STUPID STUPID.  I KNOW WHO HAS IT, AND SHE MIGHT BE WILLING TO RESELL.  OTHERWISE, I'LL BE SEEKING A WIRE BASKET TO PLANT IN.  YOU CAN EXPECT UPDATED PHOTOS IN THE FUTURE!
