Skater and Builder


Like They Own The Place

Lately, Taka has been taking Michael and Alex to the Skate park in Powell. Michael is skating well, but his board was a toy, and some of the older kids mad fun of it. Divining this not a temporary phase, we resolved to get Michael a real skate board. Jenny took the boys to the skate shop Thursday afternoon, and Michael picked out the parts to create his one of his very own. Alex intently watched and helped the owners put it together.

You may have noticed that skate boarding is not Alex's thing, but he enjoys going to the skate park. He walks around, glad hands the crowd and always makes several new friends. This particular day, Alex was telling the kids of all ages that he likes to assemble and repair skate boards and if they have a problem, they should come see him.
