My
Radio Flyer
Thomas J. Itrich
• Bloomingdale, Illinois |
|
The year was 1946 in Chicago –
the Western frontier – where my Radio Flyer became
my stagecoach. It was my main means of transportation.
I can still remember sitting on one leg while pushing
off with the other. At four years old I could get up a
pretty good speed until I went careening off the sidewalk
into a rut. This caused me to come to an abrupt stop,
at which point I would quickly yank the wagon back on
course and ride like the wind! I left my Radio Flyer outside
for quick get-away's, like the cowboy left his horse tied
to a post. With your wagon and my imagination, anything
was possible! |
