Oh how the years do fly by !!!

The first picture is my three little kids when they were about 4 or 5 years old sitting on a go cart I made with an old lawn mower engine and some scrap steel from where I worked at. The second is the same go cart and about 30 years later.The girl setting in the drivers seat is the Daughter who does the portraits that I have posted on here. I still have the go cart. I made it in about 1966 or so. My Grandson seems to think its his turn to ride it. Thanks for looking back in time with me.Memories are what life is made of!

It is amazing how time flies.....

I remember when mine were too small to reach the pedals too....now the oldest just got out of the navy after 6 years in service.

The old go cart still does look about the same. It has bigger wheels on the back now. I'm not sure I could get it started after all these years.
