The Yard Sale Bike!
My first blog is a story that happened when I was 6 years old. I was so proud. I had gone to a yard sale in the neighborhood. I bought a bike for $3.00. It was my first bike. My sister Dawn and I always fought about everything, so why should this day be any different. Dawn was a rather demanding sister. Whatever I did or no matter what I had she wanted. The amazing yard sale bike with it's banana seat and high handles bars were just enough to cause a huge fight for ownership of the bike. Now Dawn being my little sister, 5years old. She did not understand how important a yard sale bike is to a 6 year old girl who spent her life savings of tooth fairy money on it. So a tug-o-war over the bike ensued. She pulled the handle bars I the seat. Dawn however was not winning the war so being frustrated slammed the yard sale bike to the ground. With a loud crack and what we thought was God intervening, my yard sale bike was now 2 yard sale bikes. The bike broke in half. Dawn had the handle bars with the front tire. I had the seat and the back tire. Needless to say this was enough to end our fight and laugh our butts off. We did have a great rest of the day playing with our yard sale bikes.
