He probably would have been riding the bike.
Instead, Addison, who likes garage sales, was driving around to some of them with his grandmother, Lois Logan, in west Wichita. After three stops, he finally found something he wanted to buy. It was an old Polaroid camera at a house about a mile away from his grandmothers house. He thought the camera was pretty cool, he said. He bought it for $1

Boy who bought a $1 camera at garage sale finds photo of his uncle inside - 23 YEARS after relative died in car crash (Sunday Mail)---
When Addison removed the cartridge and opened it he saw an old photograph inside which he took over to his grandmother.
Lois identified one of the people in it as her son, Scott, who was killed in a car accident 23 years ago.
She guessed that the photo, of him and his high school girlfriend Susan, had been taken about 10 years before his death.

'Its almost like hes reaching out to us, saying hes still with us.
