The kids were super happy as Fabian brought out his pocket bike. Mack was able to ride it on the grass only. He was SO happy as he is NEVER been on it. Kennedy was SO happy as this
is the first time her quad was out there. We had it in the garage the whole time. But she was only allowed on the grass trail as well (on our property). It was so good for her to practice there. Now, we can all go...and she can drive her own now. So, we did take her once down to the boat launch and it was so good for her. On the way to the launch we passed by Jimmys house. Jimmy was the first person whom we met out there. He was the self-proclaimed mayor of Blais Resort. He recently went quadding on a very easy trail (one the I have taken the kids on SEVERAL TIMES!) but he was drinking AND not wearing an helmet...sadly he flipped his quad..it landed on his head :( and he died....he has a little girl that Kennedy played with for years :( And a wife. They were living out his dream, a beautiful lake front home...a well established business in Lac La Biche...and something that he did everysingle day (quadding) killed him. It was so sad. Today his wife was out there, I waved she smiled...but I felt so guilty...does she think "didn't they learn a lesson about those things?" It must be bitter sweet, really.
