Our Version of a Sunday Afternoon Picnic

Sunday afternoon Skyler and I went for a picnic. In order to get to the location Skyler had picked for our picnic, we had to go on a mountain bike ride. Skyler took me on the Santiago Oaks ride, which has a part called the 3 Bs. I found out why! I don't think I have ever brought my heart rate up that high before. The 3 Bs are three big hills. The first one is the steepest, but I made it on my first try.


Skyler has been teaching me how to go off jumps and catch air. It was a little nerve-racking at first, but I am starting to get the hang of it. I also jumped over my first curb and log. I was so excited and can't wait to show my mountain bike buddy, Carrie!

We found someone to take our picture. Yeah!

Skyler had a spot picked out for us for our picnic. When we got there, there were signs posted everywhere saying that a mountain lion was sighted in that exact spot a week ago. There was no way we were going to share our salami and cheese sandwiches with mountain lions!

Our reward for our bike ride: a picnic in the shade at Irvine Park.

I finally posted my first video. Fun stuff!
