Riding a bike

My stunt man Boston true to form decided he needed to ride a bike without training wheels like his big sis. Travtook off his training wheels and went out front in our parking lot and taught Boston for a bit. Then wheels went back on and we came in house. The following week after Boston had been begging to ride again without wheels we went to the park and took off his wheels. We put him on the bike and let go to see what he could do. The boy just took off!!! He rode fr about a half hour so I took this video of him. He is a riding fool!!! The bus has Travs mechanical know how for sure.

First Triathalon

My friend Nikki wanted me to do a Triatholan with her and naturally I took the challenge.  I did all 90 percent of my training at a gym here and just made sure I met my goal for the day.  Nikki taught me how to freestyle swim and we would train on Thursday nights at her pool together.  I learned so much and it was great to have a goal and something new.  I am so thankful she got me into Triathalon's and showed me the ropes.  She had me super prepared.  We did the Big Rock Tri at Lake Perris, CA.  It was so foggy, none of the competitors could see where they were swimming. That really made it a challenge.  Competitors were getting off course and some of them cheated so they could qualify for the Ironman.  But it was too difficult to track them because the fog was so  dense. Other than that, the race went pretty well.  I ended up getting 5th place and Nikki ended up getting 3rd place and a medal.  First race she had ever medaled in so she was excited.  I think I am addicted to Tri's and I am sure there will be more to come! Sorry for all the pics.... there are literally 50 of them.  Thanks Braun for the pics and the YouTube Video.
