What's outside of your picture window today?

When I was first diagnosed with my disease my friend sent me a get well card, and it had a picture of two little boys riding an antique trike. One pedaling and one riding on the back standing. I kept that picture, and promised myself that I would do a lawn sculpture of that when I got well. I held onto it for 4 1/2 years. Last summer when I felt like I was beginning to recover I began locating the parts. I collected old tailpipes for arms and legs, and mufflers for bodies, and buckets for heads. The eyes nose and mouth are cabinet door pulls. Then I set about to find the trike. It was an amazing adventure, and my focus for getting well. Eventually I found an antique antique trike with a long story, on Craig's list, and an antique child's handmade wagon. Both of them now sit in my yard with children riding them, and are known as the "Tin Kids". My get well gift to myself.
