We took another trip to the little skate park adjacent to the Webster Groves community center. Hanna wanted to try skateboarding on an ancient little board. She did a lot of this. But she's getting better and she has Vans on, so it's all good.
Eli loves the skate park. He's the one that gets us all jazzed about going. He is very good on a bike for 7 years old. Here, he sits on the box next to the quarter pipe. It's about 4 feet, maybe 4 1/2 feet tall.
This is where the horror part comes in. This is a photo of my Redline, sitting on the other side of that quarter pipe box. Tyson rode the Redline up the quarter, onto the top of the box (which you can plainly see here above my bike) and fell head first off and landed on the ground right where my bike is sitting. Hanna, Eli, and I watched this from the OTHER side so we just watched Tyson disappear over the edge. One Mississippi, two Mississippi...Tyson jumps up from behind the box and gives us two huge thumbs up. That was the longest two seconds I can remember. He was perfectly fine. The Redline might need new grips.
