Here's an innerestin' addition to our not-so-regular Flintstones postings. Took a trip to the Historic District of Boulder City, NV yesterday and spotted this coin operated Flitstones Flivver outside an antique store. It didn't have a price on it and as I'm not in the market for one of these I didn't bother to ask - also the grand baby was with us and she started to have a toddler moment (aka tantrum) when told she couldn't play on it anymore after about 10+ minutes playing and she started edging closer to wanting to run in the street. The ride is not actually connected to power and the coin box is blocked off with a metal frame attached by a lock so all kids can do is crawl up into it and play make-believe. Enjoy!

I use the term 'little' loosely now in referring to Melody and it mostly refers to her age - the girl is big! At three years old she's already wearing clothes for 6yr olds. She's as tall and as heavy as any 6 year old and let me tell you, when she wants Opa Fritz to pick her up and carry her it is becoming more and more of a challenge! hahahahahaha
Little Melody looks lovely Ed and Oma too! That Flintstones ride looks like yabadabdoo time!
ReplyDeleteMany Thanx Woodsy! I'll tell melody the UK says "Hi" (and she'll go, "huh?" LOL If I could afford this ride and IF I had to put it somewhere I'd love to get it. Oh, and it's probably heavy as all get-up-and-go too. Think I'll just enjoy the photos.

LOL 'Little' Melody (the 3yr old in a 6yr old's body) is a handful now and full on into her toddler mis-behavin' years! We love the little stinker though hahahahaha Sure wish I had this ride as a kid
