it's an annual thing, this peacock-heald reunion.  every summer they all get together to remind themselves they're related (hey, we do that!  only every 5 years...) and they ALWAYS go go-karting...

grandad mistakenly thought he was getting too old for this kind of fun....
the man in charge of the slippery track remembered grandad from last year's fun and thought otherwise.  he laid down the ground rules --extra care, extra respect, and go have fun!

so they did...

ryan was in seventh heaven, back on the track with his grandad, and grandad was beside himself in quiet satisfaction that he indeed, at 96, was still a mean machine when it came to driving a gokart.


we always knew he was!
