A Roll-A-Bout

This is a roll about:

You may notice the leg that goes with it. It has been broken three times.

So the Roll-A-Bout  has been used some – notice the duct tape. Let’s see in 2006, August 15th, we had the first breaking – mangling of the ankle –  then last July, 2007, the stress fracture occurred and this  July, they discovered it was disintegrating again.

But the Roll-A-Bout doesn’t look like this anymore, as of yesterday. Last evening the frame broke at a welded crossbar  – right by the toe of the boot in the picture – and I will be heading down to James Medical to see if they can arrange to fix it and provide us with a loaner.

I wish I knew someone with a big ole blowtorch . . . I wonder, do you think an auto body shop or a motorcycle shop would be able to do something with it?

It is going to be an interesting day.
