ATV on Christmas card

Marshmallow · 12-18-2012, 09:10 AM

My grandson wanted his photo on the Christmas card while he was on his four-wheeler. We took the picture, but it took some doing to get him to take off his helmet and put it under his arm. My sister cropped out most of the bike so his face would show. Grandson is ticked a bit because you see him and not his bike. We had other children to fit on the card, so he's going to have to just deal with it. I thought it funny.

Hi...

Well, we jusy had our first (as far as I know, anyway) local ATV death for this month. No details other than it flipped as he was driving it.

I have never made cards like that and it sounds like the moving images around would be the hard part. I can crop a photo but that is about all.

I don't think our area has had any deaths either but there have been many wrecks. The most recent was a teen going up a side street and hit a car front impact, he went through part of their windshield.

We had a woman killed here about five years ago. She had three young children, all girls, under the age of eight. She was trying out her brother's ATV. It flipped, killing her instantly when her head hit the ground. These things scare me to death.

Hi...

A terrible tragedy. One just cannot be too careful.
