Sunday we decided to go to Riverside State Park for the Bowl and Pitcher hike. Connor has entered the teenage stage where he's not real fond of going places and doing things anymore. He would rather hang out with Raheem, build Lego's or read/write his book. But we made him go anyway. Half way into the hike his foot slips on a rock and hit the outside of his foot. So, once we made it to the swinging bridge by the basalt rocks (bowl & pitcher rocks by the river) we sat down for a break, snack and to rest his foot. Jason, Kaiden, Piper and I crossed the bridge and then came back. The swinging bridge freaked Piper out. She walked across it, but you could tell she wasn't comfortable. Kaiden and I stopped in the middle for some pictures and it was kinda creepy feeling with the movements. Connor said his foot felt better after he rested it, so we walked back. Then we went to REI in the hopes of getting Connor a new bicycle. But it's impossible to find a medium size bicycle in any of the stores. We tried last year too. Jason found a used Giant bicycle, which happened to also be bright orange (Connor's favorite color). So, we set up a time to meet and check it out, grabbed some Subway lunch/dinner and went to Riverfront Park for a picnic lunch/dinner before we met the kid with the bike. We ended the day with buying Connor a bike finally!
