Valentine's Day 2010


We went camping and riding for Valentine's/President's Day weekend. Had a great time and the weather actually cooperated with us for once! It only rained at night after we were in bed. The above picture is what it looked like on Monday. Just perfect weather! We had a great time hanging out with our quading family. Celebrated Erika's 18th birthday, had a great Valentine's dinner, and lots of great riding. Nick did have a bit of an accident and we got to visit the Florence emergency room for the first time in all the years we have be going there. Luckily it wasn't that bad, and he's healing very nicely now.


The kids quads. Nick's is the black one, and Gabi's new quad is the white one.

Gabi loves her new bike. It was an early birthday present for her.

Larry was having issues with his bike, but there were lots of little helpers around if he needed the help! Nick and our friends Chad (on the right) & Craig (on the left) are supervising Larry as he deals with his chain issue.

Bryan riding my quad as he tried to fix it. It was a bit temperamental over the weekend and Bryan spent a whole day trying to fix it. He finally got it all worked out. Runs great now!

Here is Nick's injury. He was trying to pop a wheelie and didn't quite make it. Hit his head on the bars and ended up biting his tongue among other mouth injuries. He actually bruised his mouth too on both sides of his lips. Poor guy wouldn't talk for 3 days! He's healing fine now and should be back to normal in a few days.

All in all it was a great trip and as usual we can't wait for the next one!
