We went mountain biking again. This time we rode Lauren’s Loop on North Table Mountain. It had almost 1000 feet of climbing all at the beginning. It was a steep road and if you stopped, it was really hard to get peddling again since it was so steep. We made it to the top, though…

We took bikes, Diesel and skateboard to City Park. I (Caden) have been working on these stairs and a jump there. I finally did the 16 stairs! I also did another set that has 3 sets of 12 steps. 

We went to Golden Gate Canyon for a hike. It was about 1000′ climbing and 5 miles RT. Diesel came with and pretty much walked the entire trail. I (Wyatt) wore chacos (aka sandals). It snowed the day before. Maybe not my best choice. I had sneakers in the car, but didn’t switch them out. 

Someone always has Diesel on their lap in the car.

We rode Little Scraggy in Pine, Co, which was about 1.5 hours in to the mountains. The mountain bike team was doing it the next day, but we wanted to do it at our own pace. We loved the first part of it, then there was some serious climbing (total of 1450′). I got so…

I wanted to go to a pot luck at my school. It was for 6th grade families only and Wyatt wanted nothing to do with it. Mom tried to get a picture of the three of us and I ducked. I was not interested. I also didn’t enjoy the pot luck. I didn’t know anyone…

We went back to our first mountain bike ride that we did with the mountain bike club. We try to go back at least once a week for training. We did the ride twice after school. Once we took one break (huge improvement from our first ride) and the second ride we didn’t take a…

Mom and I (Wyatt) volunteer at Children’s Hospital every Tuesday night. Sometimes we set up an arts and crafts table for kids walking by. These are a couple of art projects we did with kids. We also deliver letters and flyers to all the rooms. There are nine floors. Sometimes we watch kids with autism…

We stopped to roast marshmallows along the way. We had several. They were delicious. 

We went on a hayride with these two horses. We saw wild turkeys along the way. It was not the most comfortable ride, but we still had fun.
