Happy Birthday (late)!
Your mention of a scooter ride reminded me of something. A few weeks ago I was driving through Austin on I-90. I see a cop on the shoulder with his lights all on like he was pulling someone over. But, he's not stopped, he's going like five mph on the shoulder. Then after I pass him I see a rascal scooter in front of him.
You can take your rascal scooter to the Grand Canyon, or out for groceries, to see the grandkids, etc. Just don't take it on the freeway.

I've got to admire an old-timer wanting to Rascal a freeway. My scoot is an old Honda Helix with a sidecar. It hauls groceries, 2x6s and sometimes even Mrs. Hertz.
