Going, Going, Gone

I picked up a bike when I went to the dump the other day. A perfectly good Huffy 18 speed girls bike. I took it home and cleaned it up. Yerterday, the next door neighbor was out working in the yard, so I went over and asked her if one of her girls needed a bike.

Her older girl, who is in the same class as V. had outgrown her current bike, so she could use a new bike. The lady next door is a single mom, and I know her budget is real tight, so I brought it over. She was real pleased. Made me feel good too.

It didn't cost me anything but asking and a little elbow grease to clean up the bike, and what a good feeling.
