We’re a little backwards in a chronological sense here…but we’re trying! Check out Cameron’s Florida adventure –
First, a little golf. Hints about our rounds of golf were made earlier in the ‘Death by Fire Ant’ post, but here’s the Camster in action:
We’re working on his set up! And look! It’s Cameron asking “Dad, why do you have to be such a pain in my butt with that camera?” Aren’t kids wonderful?
Okay, enough with the golf. He loved it…and he wants to play all of the time…but here’s his true love…skateboarding! The Tampa Skate Park is one of the biggest, one of the baddest, and one of the best in the US. All kinds of pro events are held here each year. It’s so cool, and it’s so cutting edge, that every year they re-do the whole park…everything! It’s constantly changing and being updated.
Cameron is a “street” skater. He prefers tricks on things like stairs over tricks on stuff like vertical walls. Check out this blurry attempt to catch him flying off a few:
And here, same stairs but with some kind of a “kick flip” and 360 thrown in for good measure…and yes, he lands these all day long even though the board is nowhere near his feet in the photo. It ends up where it belongs with him on it:
And lest he be accused of being one-sided, here’s a little vertical action:
The photographer missed the high point. Hey…I never claimed to be good. Whatever! More street-like action:
Yes, he landed it.
And finally…pool time with his biggest fan! It’s nice to know that Cameron is still a kid at heart.
Nice mohawk.
Play time meets learning time…Cameron teaches Paris to get to the bottom of “the deep end” to grab Cody (the penguin). Paris was terrified of going to the bottom at any depth before this, so lots of credit goes to the big brother!
We had a great time!
