Was scooting past Savannah State on Laroche Avenue and noticed two security folks on new scooters outfitted with yellow coats and helmets. Oops – where is my helmet? OK, should have gone back home to get it, but kept heading to work.

Saw several scooters in Newport, RI during our quick stay. Cold and rain don’t stop these folks! Scooter sitings lean toward people commuting or running errands. Excellent chowder at the Black Pearl and wonderful personal service and seafood at Bowers.

Caught Kevin Spacey on a Vespa in ‘Beyond the Sea’ – the story of Bobby Darin … We rated this 4 stars on Netflix. Maybe Dr. Jones will be buzzing on a scooter in Indiana Jones – can’t wait to see the new movie!
