Mornings at the Skate Park

The cool mornings have been perfect for a bike ride to the skate park.

The first time we went this summer, Maggie wanted to ride her own bike.  About half way there, she fell, skinning her knee and tearing her black leggings.  She bravely stood up, brushed herself off, and asked to take the trailer-bike.  So we rode back home, switched to the trailer-bike, and resumed our outing.

Both Maggie and Connnor love to use their scooters at the park.  Maggie comes up with different "paths" over the various obstacles.  She says, "Daddy, watch this" with each new "path" she invents.  Her balance is impressive.



Connor is also very skilled on the various walls and obstacles, but he loves to climb up the walls.   After disappearing into the "bowl," Connor magically appears by climbing up the lip.  His latest accomplishment, after many many practices, is making it up the steepest part of the bowl.
