When There's a Will, There's a Way




One of our favorite things to do when we go to Sunriver, Oregon, is to bike ride. The place where we go has over 35 miles of paved bike trails. It's awesome. We pretty much bike everywhere. There's a beautiful path down along the river that also goes out to the horse stables and the small airport. Parley was so disappointed this year to have a broken leg. It would have been too risky to get on a bike, fall, and re-injure himself. I was going by one of the many bike rental places and thought I would just see if they had anything that might work. I found this bike. It reminds me of a "big wheel" that we all probably had when we were little. Parley jimmyrigged his crutches on there and he was off. He was a real trooper, going up big hills with Josh on his lap sometimes!! Once again, more fun than we deserved!! (Thanks Grammy!!)

I took a picture of him on his hot wheel carrying his crutches AND Seth's bike when he couldn't ride it back to the house from the meadow. Now that is really a trooper act.

Cool bike. All the big boys wanted to try it out. I should have gotten Seth one of those :)
