More on Mom.

Port Townsend, today.

[Ed Note: Regarding the story of Mom and the Indian Chief, I received additional information from my Sister.]

"Was thinking about your story about Mom on the Indian.

Did you know her first husband, Dennis Barroclough, had the first Indian Motorcycle dealership in Victoria (BC) and serviced all the bikes for the Victoria Police Department?

They owned a motorcycle with a sidecar. Dennis took her out to teach her how to drive it and ride in it.

He was riding in the sidecar and when they came around the corner by their house. She flipped him out.

But the kid that lived next door was watching, so she calmly kept riding like nothing happened, put the kick-stand down and walked into the house.

Dennis eventually dragged himself home."
