Little Boy in a Big Land

After some of the business aspects of his parents' trip to the West were concluded, Prince Tyger and his family spent some time in Park City, Utah where some of the winter Olympic events for the 2002 Olympics were held.  Obviously, their summertime visit found conditions much changed from those of the Olympics.

Big T, who loves to go mountain-biking, left Prince Tyger with Sweet Momma H and spent an afternoon biking around the hilly ascents.

What goes up must come back down, so Big T savored the moment.

Sweet Momma H, in her pre-Tyger days, would normally have accompanied Big T in his adventure.  But even she might have balked at such an ascent in such hot weather.  So, she and the Tyger relaxed and wandered around the lodge where they were staying.  Prince Tyger loved having so much space around him - and so few people.

Finding a sign just his size was also great fun!

But Prince Tyger was happy to see Big T again because he too wanted to scale the mountain, although not by mountain bike.  The chair lift suited the Tyger just fine.

Hold on, tight, Papa!  That space between the chair seat and the safety bar looks wide enough for little Tygers to slip through!

There they go!  Prince Tyger loved it.

And how did they come down this time?  Very, very fast!

Still, the experience didn't daunt the Tyger's enthusiasm.  He wanted "More!"
