Bradie and I went for our first hike; this is her “let’s get this hike thing going face.”

After testing just one walking stick, Bradie picked up another nodding her head and saying, “I look more authentic with two.”

After several hours of work, Bradie tested her handy work: a new bridge over the creek.  Not bad for a toddler.

Lastly, Bradie threw her walking sticks at the mountain lion we ran into to save her father.  What you see here is her running to help me up and get us out of the wilderness.  She could give Bear Grylls a run for his money.

Thank you Mountain Equipment Co-op for making backpacks for children; before the time of child labour* laws, kids pulled their own weight. Stupid progress. Well here are some pictures of my sweet daughter’s first backpack.

About Me

I enjoy not eating ketchup, trying to remember quotes from Sam the Eagle, and trying to dissuade my daughter from playing soccer–it steals your soul. When I am not pursuing these questionably Sisyphean pursuits, I am a father, husband, and teacher. Should you want to learn more about me I suggest reading my blog–if only you could find it.
