Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Halloween, it brings out the creepiest people…

and this year it brought us the creepiest grandparents, Nana and Grampa Holt. Here they are sneaking up on Noah as we took a family stroll through Prospect Park.

Just a leisurely stroll.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Greeting babies.

Helping others.

Back in October we met up with Nooria and her family for the Raptor Fest in Prospect Park.

Not all of the raptors were so vicious looking.

Meesha!

Flying demonstrations.

A while red-tailed hawk looking on.

Distraction.

A bald eagle with his freshly scratched handler.

These kids.

Last post from our trip to NH back in August. It’s a scary one!

Noah entered the “tractor pull”.

His competition was strong.

Seriously.

This guy won. He could have peddled that cinderblock to those mountains.

Spectator.

Skunk Hot Dog for lunch! What’s not to like.

A photo of Noah caught avoiding his Skunk Hot Dog on local television.

The trailhead we were trying to find the day before was super easy to find, when I knew where to look.

Our trail leader.

Nature is amazing. When this tree fell over it picked up the boulder it had grown around. How long until that boulder falls to the ground as the tree decomposes?

“Just keep climbing!”

Peaked.

Over it.

Noah was trying to head back down almost as soon as we got to the top. He was cold so I told him to take shelter in the trees while I took a couple of photos.

It only “looks” like he turned to stone.

The descent.

The reward.

While we were in NH, back in August, we had lunch…

geared up…

and went for a hike.

Like life, the path wasn’t clear.

But there was cool stuff along the way.

Then your family decides they don’t want to follow you up a grown-in logging road anymore.

“It was still fun right guys!?!”

“Right?”

Mostly forgiven.
