This blog was originally going to be pretty much devoted to stuff about Louise's Daughter - our business -- but it has evolved into observations and pictures gleaned from our life.... but I guess life is where our artwork comes from!

I'm also Henry's great great grandson, and have published Henry's analog diary from 1886 in digital form 123 years later. Henry's Diary at http://HenryCOlney1886.blogspot.com/ In 2010, I am blogging another diary - that of my maternal great Uncle Bert Babcock - 1894. http://bertbabcock1894.blogspot.com/

I LOVE that bike! I'm having trouble getting on mine gracefully since I hurt my knee. This would really solve that problem.
That is exactly why I got this bike. The last summer I rode my old one, I fell off about 4 times -- always while mounting or dismounting... my arthritic hip just would not swing over the back. A search of the web revealed these Biria bicycles - http://www.biria.com/ Mine is from their "Easy Boarding Series" .... http://www.biria.com/bicycles/eb/ - 7 gears. I wasn't ready for a tricycle yet, though they do make some cool ones!
I ended up getting mine in Massachusetts on the way to one of our shows. A check of the dealer listings on their web page now has one in Niagara Falls. I highly recommend the bike with the caveat that the original equipment tires were not great quality, and I upgraded after getting a flat on my third ride! I can't walk much more than a mile or so, but I can ride 10-20 miles fairly easily after working up to it each spring! Let me know if you get one!
