Today we finally made it out for a "hike". Of all things I've promised about social distancing, the kids are most excited to hike. Odd, since none of them actually like walking. Today we went to the Spring Run Trail to hike/scooter/bike. It was such nice weather, and even though we are social distancing, just seeing other people felt good. And it was a change of scenery from our neighborhood walks.
As we were taking the snack break above, a kid rode by and shouted, "thunderstorm coming!"
This smart mom had checked the radar an hour or so before we left, but of course, didn't think to check again. Sure enough, it was almost on top of us as I herded the kids back to the trail and encouraged them to MOVE IT!
We didn't make it. Fortunately, it was just pelting rain, no thunder. And it was warm... enough.
I exclaimed over the fun adventure, and the kids all rode home in their underwear. Friday afternoons don't get much better than that!
