Date with Ammon

Ammon and I went on a date yesterday. We went mountain biking at the San Tan Mountain Regional Park. We have been there before but this time he wanted to go on a different trail. Needless to say, he took me on a 4.4 mile trial which ended up to be quite the workout. Ammon had a hard time riding up the hills toward the end and would always walk his bike when he saw a hill.. I told him he needed to at least try and ride up the hills.

Start with the green trail upper right, then follow upper green to red, then back around to the green

We passed several groups of hikers and just about all of them called Ammon "little man." Pretty funny. We got to this one point where we saw some interesting mountains. I said to myself, "where are we, I can't believe this exists near our house." The view just looked out of place, but it was worth the time spent. I'm glad Ammon likes to go bike riding. Trying to do stuff like this with Amber is difficult. I know she's going to read this so I just want to let her know that she has so many other great qualities about her, even though she's not much for nature. Her idea of nature is watching it on National Geographic. I love you Amber! Hehe.
