Bed lake Fun!!!

Our friends from down south spent the weekend with us and we all spent most of the weekend riding motorcycles at the bed lake (it is really the dry lake bed but the kids have always called it the bed lake). Several friends from the Kingdom Hall also met us there. We made campfires, grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, ate lots of chips and cookies and drank a lot of coke. The weather was perfect and the rain had made the dirt just right. There was a constant cosmic like activity of little motorcycles going by in all directions along with the adults screaming and smiling with kid-like delight on go-carts and big motorcycles.

#2 showed me a small "jump" and I got the courage to go over it! I didn't make air but it was the largest mound of dirt I had ever tried. I finally learned to make a tight turn with my foot out, just like #4 had taught me. I felt like such a kid when I made Jay follow me to "the jump" and watch me go over it then make a turn. I thought I was going to have to pull rank because our actual kids were yelling for his attention to watch their new trick. He was such a proud dad of all us!

Jay and I decided if ML ever goes into Motocross, we were going to sponsor her. She has no fear and is wide open all the time. She was in the air over all her jumps! E spent two afternoons with us and is now scouring Craigslist for his own bike.

Now we are all waiting for the next long weekend to do it all again.
