A cold bike ride!

Today was Walk/Ride To School day.  Close by kids walk or ride their bikes and the busses drop other kids off at the end of the mile long bike path between the village and the school.  Kids usually enjoy it.  It’s great exercise for them and a great way to get some morning energy out before class starts.  We’ve missed it every week this school year so far.  This morning we had the right combination of remembering, enough time, and interest.  Three important factors.  Alan even stayed home with Eve so that we could make it happen.  Turns out it was COLD outside!  It was about 31° when we left.  Lex and I made it about one house down the road before turning around to come back and dig some gloves out of storage.  I guess I should bring the whole box of winter gear down soon :(    Anyway, we rode and walked to school because Lex kept getting too tired to pedal anymore.  Poor boy.  We made it, and we were only about five minutes late!  I left him with bright red cheeks and a runny nose.  It was fun, but this might be our one Walk/Ride To School day until spring.
