Skydiving with Riley and Dylan


Sunday April 13th:


Kel and Hannah had plans and a bit of a cold, so Dylan and Riley agreed to head out for a long day on BlackJack. We left at 11:15 and didn't get back until 3:30. Had to stop at Niwot Cycles for some D-licious Sport Beans, went by the IBM park, headup into Boulder and up Boulder Creek path. Lots of curious looks, everyone was wondering what kind of 'contraption' were we riding...a stop at McDonald's to reward a job well done and on home we went. Unfortunately, we dumped the bike for the first time. Found out that tight right hand turns jackknifes the trailer, so after a few minor bumps and a tear or two, we were ok.


The excitement for the day, was stopping at a park, looking at a strange pole with some ribbons hanging from it, and then looking up to see skydivers coming down right on top of us. Never a dull moment in Boulder County!
