Tanner - The return to skateboarding....

As promised (or threatened), I'm posting photos of T's first time back on his skateboard since the broken arm.  I was a little worried he would fall and re-break it.  I can't even begin to tell you the fit my mom was having over my letting him near a skateboard again.  Sigh.

I told T that if the weather was okay I would take him to Sk8 Cary this afternoon and stay till the late session was over.  Well, wouldn't you know it - the first time back on the board and it lasted all of 49 minutes.  No joke.  We had to pack up and leave.  Why?  Did he re-break the arm?  Did he fall and get hurt?  Did he decide he was done with skating forever?  Nope.   We left because too much dew had settled on the course and they closed the park.  What a bummer.

I had to threaten to get the following photograph.  I told him that if he dared to skate down ANY ramp in that park before I had my camera ready, there would be a hefty price to pay.  He obliged.

And this is the heavy dew on the course.  It makes the ramps very slippery.  Glad the park closed.  I wasn't ready for another broken bone.
