Friday we had scheduled to go on a bike ride. I wasn't sure where we wanted to go. It couldn't' be far because we don't have a bike rack for our van anymore. Some friends from church all decided to get together at a park - so I thought, "we will ride there". Problem was it was a park clear across town on paths we had never been before. But I mapped it out and off we went. It ended up being about 5 miles. There was, though, a promise of Jason coming and picking us up if we were too tired to ride back.
About 3 miles in some clouds rolled in, wind started blowing - hard. I got a text from my friends (already at the park) that there was a severe storm warning and they were leaving. This storm was NOT in the forecast. Then a big gust of wind came and it literally blew Madison off her bike and she scrapped up her leg pretty bad. I called Jason to come "rescue us". But then.... I had the keys to the van!!! oops. He came in his little car, picked up a few kids, got the van keys, went back home, my friend Heather came and picked up a few more kids and bikes, then Jason came back to get the last of the bikes and crew. phew. So glad I had people that could come to our rescue!
