  • A Dream Realized After 50 Years

    My father in law wanted a Cushman Eagle back 1955 when he was a kid but his parents wouldnt let him buy one. I never knew this until recently. Hes never bought himself anything much really since Ive known him for 27 years. Ive been encouraging him to get one. He could afford it but for some reason just wouldnt go through with it. After my little medical scare I just flat told him that if he wanted it and could afford it he should get it now while he still can because waiting any longer wont do him a damn bit of good. Well he got it! For those who arent familier with Cushmans this link has some pics.

      I agree with your conclusion in regard to this. You only live once and discovering your dreams are what it's all about. I bet he's happier with this purchase then just about anything else he has bought over the years.
