Merry Christmas

As a Christmas present for all my readers I am going to tell you the story of how I got my bike.

This is me and my parents on Christmas morning many years ago. Our family was very poor and so it was a huge deal when I got the bike. My Dad told me the story on how they got the bike.

One morning as he was going for a walk, he saw something in the old creek and pulled it out. He cleaned it off and discovered it was part of a bike.

Only the wheels were

missing so he sold one of our
piglets which were practically

the only sources

of money we had.

Mom pitched in with some

vegetables. With the money

they were able to buy a new set of wheels. Dad put them on the bike and on Christmas I saw the bike (which I am still riding) for the first time. Without my parents generosity I probably wouldn't be a biker right now.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
Ben

Almost Christmas

Ben has been getting ready for Christmas!
Here he is in his giant Christmas tree.

<--The tree is a really

big one.

He also

has a

giant

nativity

scene. -->

P.S. Please do not comment unles you actually have something to say.

Oops

For some reason The Big Jump got put below Eragon. Scroll down to see it.

Eragon

This doesn't have to do much with Ben biking (although he did
bike to the theater,) but last night Ben and I went to see Eragon.
It was a special preview for famous people. It was a pretty good
movie but a lot different from the book. The only thing I found
really lame was the dragon grew in about 2 seconds. Also the battle
at the end was badly done. It is still a movie worth seeing anyway.

The Big Jump

Today Ben went to the greatest bike jump ever.

This is the beggining of the first jump. -->

<-- He lost control near the end.

Luckily he landed in the water

unharmed -->

<-- After several jumps, Ben got
pretty good at it.

P.S. Has anyone else seen Eragon? What did you think of it?

Chief Great Bird

Yesterday Ben and I took a long, off road trip to see an old friend Chief Great Bird.











After many greetings, conversations, and snacks, the Chief decided to show us how he got his name.









<-- Here are the "Great Birds". (Chief hasn't quite gotten up yet.)

Here are Ben and the Chief both -->




P.S. If anyone has any ideas on places Ben should go or adventures he should try, please post a comment.
