HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAN!

From a very early age Irene has been interested in various modes of transportation. She was quite a horsewoman at about one year old... As she grew older she became a little more daring. Here she is on her very own Harley. She made it to Gilroy by the time her parents found her...

They took her home but they just couldn't quell her enthusiasm for speed. She ran away again, this tme as an adult and joined the stock car race circuit. Here she is taking 1st place (!) in car number 3...(note the rakish tilt of cigarette...)
As she grew older though she was beginning to come to her senses. All of her past deeds began to catch up with her...(you can run, Bean, but you cannot hide..)
Now, here she is all grown up. Walking seems to have been the answer all along. (or is it that she's just missed hopping a train, note tracks in background)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BEAN-A-ROO!!! Love, La Coop
