Bike trip with daddy

So I am still searching for a job.  I had a few interviews for a position at Umpqua Bank in Roseburg.  They offered me the job but it did not pay enough so I am still searching.  Since I have lots of free time I try to spend a lot of time with Nathan.  Today I gave Heather a break and took Nathan for about 3 and a half hours.  I told him yesterday that he was going on a bike ride with Daddy today.  He was really excited and this morning when I told him he climbed in the bike trailer and wouldn't get out.

We biked over to Skinner Butte park about bout 6.5 miles away. Nathan slept pretty much the whole way.  It's a really nice park and it's right on the bike path along the river so it is a perfect park to bike to.  It was a beautiful day and we stayed a t the park for about two and a half hours.  


Here's a slideshow of Nathan at the park.

Once I convinced Nathan that we should leave we hopped back on the bike and I left the cover off and didn't put his helmet on so he could look around at the parks, animals and people along the bike path on the way home.  He really likes wearing his helmet and had a hard time taking it off once we got to the park.  I figured since we were only going 6-8 mph and still the fastest thing around he'd be fine with out his helmet.  The trailer can't flip even if I crash so it's pretty safe.

Here's some picture I took from the path on the way home. I also updated the slideshow on the HOME page found by the link at the top of the page.
