Still Peddling

Today marks the 139th anniversary of the arrival of the first bicycle in Washington Territory. Shortly thereafter scenes such as today's began to occur. Sometime after that they began to be photographed. The rite of passage from four wheeled toys to tricycles to bicycle with training wheels and finally without is a very important time in a kid's life, although it is hard to understand the significance when you are child. As an adult it is a real and important series of steps. For both you and your child.
