Boulevard Park, Bellingham...

On one of the first bright and sunny days of spring here in Whatcom County, I took a couple of my boys to Boulevard Park.








I have a motto, if you can't climb it yourself - then you shouldn't be climbing it - or at least I'm not going to help you.  Cooperating with your brother is acceptable.

The idea behind this comes from my family living in Alaska and my brother wanting to ride a big snow-machine (snowmobile for all you non Alaskans.) The deal was, he could ride the snow-machine when he could start it.  They were pull starts back then!  This was a perfect way to assure someone was strong enough to handle a full size snow-machine. 

I apply this principle to many things with my own boys and it works pretty well.
