Ride your bike to school day






 Our children's elementary school has special days that encourage everyone to ride to school on their bicycles or scooters. Fall, thus far, has not been too cold here in Colorado, and the participation is still going strong! Here on this day, almost all the children walked, biked or scooted to school. We feel so very privileged to live in a community where kids can safely make it on their own, with parents lending a watchful eye,













  The boys had a great time during this event, stopping at the park along the way, and then headed home.  They have since travelled on their bikes with their sister many days to school.



 Soon, it will be snowing here, the "ride to school" days will be few and far between. Bermuda shorts will be replaced with long trousers, tennies with snow boots, short sleeve tops with layers and coats, mittens and scarfs.
