Yosemite Sam, Part 7 — Postscript

Well, the trip to Yosemite with Sam happened well over a year ago now, and I'm finally getting this story posted. Sam is 5 years old now! (Time flies). We haven't attempted anything so adventurous since then (well, at least not with the Chariot; driving across the country with three kids was quite an adventure though...).

We still have the Chariot and use it quite a bit, though I don't think I've used the hiking kit since the first time in Yosemite. The Chariot is just too wide for most hiking trails, and when the trails are wider it's usually easy enough to just push the thing in jog-stroller mode. So, that experiment is over for now, until the next time I'm desperate enough to try something similarly crazy. Even without the hiking kit, I really do think that the Chariot is probably the nicest, most comfortable "outdoor kid transportation vehicle" I've seen. We have the bike trailer kit too and I intend to use that more when the weather warms up.

I've added links to each of the posts below, in order, for your convenience.
