stroller envy part 2, answered prayer

Thanks to Cheryl Leschide for sending us every Craigslist posting for this particular stroller she could find, and thanks to Debby Coons for graciously providing the money to purchase this stroller, I have had an answer to prayer. Thank you!

We got a used Cheetah Chariot for less than half the price, thanks to the great Craigslist trading site. A family who had to older children and a baby on the way were downsizing to a single stroller of this particular kind. And they loved this one, every minute of using it.

So, from what I can gather, these strollers are a Canadian specialty. I guess if you are a northern country with brutal rains and snows, you want something as rugged as where you live. If you are willing to purchase all the attachments, this carrier can be converted from a regular stroller, to a jogging stroller, to a bike trailer, to a hiking trailer and even a cross country ski trailer! The kids fit inside and can be completely enclosed for any weather. So long to the rainy-feeling trapped inside-too cold outside-can't go out- excuses! The only excuse I have for today is that kids both have bad coughs and my own raingear isn't up to par!

So without further ado, here we go. http://www.chariotcarriers.com/english/html/cheetah.php

First, this is what our dining area used to look like. (One downside is that this Chariot isn't a fold down easy thing, and we can't get it into our storage area well).
So this is what it looks like now.
A handy kid's chair in the living room perhaps? (fleece my addition)
Josie isn't quite sure about it yet, but yesterday we went on a long walk around the harbor area of Steveson and Josie was thrilled to poke Asher during the entire walk!
