Snowboarding fun

This past year for Bradley's Birthday and Christmas, he received some snowboarding gear and has been eagerly waiting to go and test it out. I took Bradley up to Brighton Ski Resort a couple weeks ago and put him in a lesson so that he could learn the basics(and I could have a couple hours to go off by myself). It was a little sketchy at first, he saw the people on skis and thought it would be easier since they get to carry poles to help them balance. I convinced him to keep trying the snowboard and after a while he was able to balance and go down some of the straight runs without falling. We had a lot of fun with this, and came back up the next week to give it another shot. Bradley is pretty quick to catch on and is always willing to keep trying. We even got off the "bunny hill" and went up one of the lifts that takes you halfway up the mountain.
