Some friends came out to our place to shoot their daughter's senior photos and the little guy made it into a few. (I realize this is not an example of a Vespa that left home, but I did take it for a ride earlier today.)

Sold this one in 2008 I think. Wish I had kept it, never gave me a moment of bother.

That's a decent ride from TMI to Holtwood. A picture of a coal power plan and a 2 stroke scooter? Be careful, the woke police look for just that kind of treason!!

74° today instead of the typical 45-50° so I grounded the regulator and put the headlight back in. Good to go. Lights work now. So went out to enjoy the warmth and leaves and joy. Almost forgot to stop and take a pic!
![]() Gorgeous day to sneak away.
