Bora Bora

 



Our friend Mimi is on a 17 day cruise. It started in Australia - and will end up in Tahiti next week. She said weather is nice but phone service and internet are sparse. It all reminds me of the movie South Pacific.

Electric Trike Rickshaw - Product Review

Image
  Sixthreezero.com Capacity 500 pounds Last week we sold our Vespa 150 Scooter. We replaced it with this electric powered trike. They don't have a lot in common other than Lulu and I can go to sporting events on either one.  This electric trike was made by SIXTHREEZERO.COM. They sell a long line of electric bikes - trikes - and scooters. The company is based in California - but it appears the trikes are made in China and assembled in California. I also helped a bit - it comes packed nicely - but the handlebars - fenders - seats - pedals - and computer are easily assembled at home. The trike was compacted nicely in a 150 pound box. The delivery person brought it up the driveway in a hand truck - and dumped it in my garage. It took about one hour to unpack everything - then another hour to assemble it.

Review of GE Profile Washer-Dryer Combo - After 10 Days

GE Profile Washer-Dryer Combo We recently replaced our standard stackable LG Washer and Dryer. We have them for about 10 years. I was eager to try a washer dry combo.

She gets attached to items and likes to keep them around a long time. I always buy something with an out. In this case I have 90 days to try the new combo. If I get buyer's remorse they go back to the store. Most big box stores are good at return policies. Just keep your receipt and packing.  First off - the new Combo costs $2100. The price included delivery and set up. I never used to buy the extra warranty - but I am soft in my old age - I paid $250 for a 5 year cover everything warranty. I sold our old washer and dryer set for $800.  If I have to list a negative - the unit weighs 300 pounds. I would not want to try to lift this myself.

Electric Trike Rickshaw

Image
  Today I ordered an electric trike. It is designed to haul 500 pounds or 4 people. It has 3disk brakes - electric motor - font wheel drive - lithium battery.  It can go 20 mph for 50 miles. It takes 3 hours to charge.  It requires no license to drive - no license plate - no insurance.  It is my next step from Vespa to trike to walker.
