I'm still going nuts getting ready for the Long Grove
Chocolate festival. I've been ordering supplies and equipment and pacing the
floor like an expectant father, waiting on news about the concession trailer.
It dawned on me that the way things are -- grinding equipment in the truck,
sales "floor" in the new trailer, that once I got to the Long Grove
Chocolate Festival, I was stuck. My Hotel is 3 miles away and that's a mighty
long walk after a full day of making chocolate.
I decided a scooter was the way to go!
I just got a little 49cc scooter. In West Virginia, no license, no insurance,
no helmet is even required -- though I think I would be stupid NOT to wear one.
It will get me back and forth to the hotel and allow me to run errands like
getting more gasoline for the generator, more kerosene for the heater and cups
should I run out!
I feel stupid riding it -- it isn't really masculine after all -- but it solves
the problem and it gets 100 miles to the gallon too!
