Isn't she a beauty? You are looking at Curtis' new Vespa GS 160...the rare, coveted, and one of the most sought after Vespa's around, and Curtis couldn't be happier! Here is our story...Late Monday night Curtis found an ad on Craigslist that read, "Vespa GS for sale." "Could it be?" he thought. "Is this really the Vespa GS that so many scooterist (including Curtis) long to get their hands on?" Indeed it was! Curtis promptly emailed the seller and told him he was interested...very interested.
The next morning, bright and early, we got a call from the seller informing us it was still available. Curtis made him promise that he wouldn't sell it before we got there...we didn't want to make the 2 1/2 hour drive only to come home with no scooter. The guy told Curtis he would hold onto it for him and we were off to Denver. The guy called us three different times while we were on our way asking us if we were really interested and if we were really going to buy the scooter. By this time he was getting all sorts of phone call from interested scooterist offering him more money. "YES, I am interested and YES I am going to buy it," Curtis told him. "DO NOT sell it before we get there!! We are on our way!" Luckily, the guy kept his promise and we were fortunate enough to come home with one of Curtis' dream scooters. It was a happy time! Of course, many of you (unless you are an avid scooter enthusiast) don't really appreciate what a great thing this is, owning a Vespa GS 160, but just know it is TOTALLY AWESOME!!
To conclude our great day, Curtis played in a soccer game later that night and scored the winning goal!! It was the perfect goal. It was with his left foot and it went right over the goalie's head right into the net. Good job babe!!
What a perfect day!! 
That is a perfect day. Glad to hear you guys are still, as always, having fun together!!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new scooter! You guys seriously crack me up. I'm not big into scooters...not at all. Thanks for teaching me a thing or two about them so I can kind of know what I'm talking about! ;)
ReplyDeleteShe is a BEAUT! Does Curtis name his scooters?? Does he refer to them as he's or she's??
