197,345,276 Miles......

After two summers of hard driving, Maddox has pretty much worn the wheel gears completely off of his old electric Jeep. If the thing had come equipped with an odometer I am certain that we would all be astonished at how many miles he has probably accumulated. Because he is just too big for another electric car, and because he loved driving that Jeep around so much, Mandy decided to look for a mini gas powered ATV for him. After several weeks of watching the local classifieds the right one both in size and price was found. Papa, Maddox, and Greg love it because it's really, really cool looking. Nana and Mama love it because it can be governed down to a reasonable speed, and it has a remote control and a rear tether both of which can be used to immediately kill the engine! Maddox took to it like he had been riding it for years and he now spends many hours wearing the grass off of the lawn. He rode yesterday until he had a blister on his thumb from pressing the gas so long.
