Yes, I know we’re not on the “S’s” yet, but I’m behind anyway, so if I’m a little ahead won’t it all even out? Sure it will.
I’ve not actually ridden it yet, as it’s not licensed or registered (but it is insured as of 12:01 tomorrow), and I still need to get my learner’s permit, but this little Italian beauty is mine. Her name? What else but Sofia?
She was delivered this morning by Dwayne, who promptly asked me if I’d like to go to dinner. Is it dangerous to date truckers? Guess I’ll find out 
This little Vespa is such a putt-putt, the top speed going downhill with a tailwind is about 65mph. No highways or freeways, just side roads and residential areas for me. With a helmet, I promise. I’ll be the one being passed by the mountain bikes.
Ciao!

Posted 07 Sep 2008 at 4:46 pm ¶Very nice! Looks like she’ll be lots of fun!
I saw your Hemlock Ring blanket on display yesterday at Blazing Needles. It’s beautiful!
Posted 07 Sep 2008 at 4:57 pm ¶So you *are* going out with Dwayne, brava!! And Sofia is just gorgeous, both dangerous and sweet at the same time.
Posted 07 Sep 2008 at 6:49 pm ¶Beauty. Hope Dwayne is as sweet. Loved knitting with you Saturday!
Posted 07 Sep 2008 at 10:03 pm ¶Woo you! Sofia’s a beauty — love the color. Thank you for wearing your helmet. Please drive defensively, also. Have fun on your date!
Posted 08 Sep 2008 at 8:44 am ¶So beautiful. Sophia. Purple. I can just see you buzzing around town in all your glory.
Posted 08 Sep 2008 at 9:48 am ¶Be Safe. Be Happy.
Vespa Vespa Vespa!!! Hi Sophia!!
She’s a beaut and I wish you many miles of safe riding! How much yarn can you stuff in the little thing on the back?
Posted 08 Sep 2008 at 10:42 am ¶To all ~ Dwayne has not proven himself to be a mass murderer as of yet. In fact, he seems to be quite nice.
Posted 08 Sep 2008 at 11:18 pm ¶Ooooh baby.
Posted 09 Sep 2008 at 2:39 am ¶Watch out, you mamma-jamma!
How cute is that scooter!
And look at you with a dinner invitation! How cool is that! I hope you have a great time.
What are you wearing? Or is it too silly to ask?
Posted 09 Sep 2008 at 8:57 am ¶Is Sofia purple or brown? In the photo she looks like a beautiful cup of cappuccino!! Bellissima!
Posted 11 Sep 2008 at 11:23 am ¶WOWZA!!!!! And the name! The name! She’s a beauty and I’m ever so jealous.
I once owned an Alfa Romeo and every time I drove it my name immediately became Sofia and I only played Dean Martin tapes.
La vita e buona and ciao bella!
Posted 11 Sep 2008 at 12:58 pm ¶It’s beautiful! Does it seem like there is enough room for a small passenger? Or should I hold out for a motercycle with a sidecar?
Posted 16 Sep 2008 at 2:24 pm ¶Pretty!
Posted 16 Sep 2008 at 11:48 pm ¶Love the Vespa!
Posted 23 Oct 2008 at 9:22 pm ¶I have looking for a refurbished one myself. May I ask where you found yours?
