"Hey, Pasha," called Séamus as he crossed
the parking lot. "What are you doing this
afternoon? I was thinking about catching a
movie, if you're interested."
"Thanks, but I've got big plans today,"
Pasha replied with a huge smile. "Today is the
day."
"Huh? Today is what day?" asked Séamus
with a confused look.
"THE day, silly," answered Pasha. "I finally
saved enough money to enroll in the beginner's
class at the Motorcycle Safety Association. I'm
headed there now, as a matter of fact." Séamus
stared at his friend in disbelief.
"Wait a minute," he said as he stopped in
his tracks. "You actually enrolled in the
motorcycle riding class? I never thought you'd
do it. I thought it was just another project you
act excited about and then drop in two weeks."
"Don't be silly," replied Pasha. "This isn't like
the time I wanted to volunteer as a clown for the
children's center or start my own dog walking
business. I'm serious about learning to ride
motorcycles. Once I get my first bike, I'll travel
all over the world just like my hero, Lois Pryce."
"Isn't she the woman who rode her
motorcycle from Alaska to South America?"
