Good morning crew. Making the 7 hour drive up to see my youngest just outside of Santa Cruz.

Should have been on the road an hour ago but when you have two female passengers, coffee and deep breaths are required.

My daughter had a bonfire Saturday night and she told everyone no alcohol. Highschool boy brings alcohol, now he is supposed to show up at my house at 8 this morning, I am going to work him like he has never worked before.

Highschool boy just left, I made him move square bales of hay from one end of the barn to the other and restack them this morning. He was absolutely soaked with sweat and dead tired when he was done. I was going to give him a pitchfork this afternoon and he was going to clean out a pen in the barn but I had to go fix fence so he got to do that instead.

How offended was he with the work?

What did the young lads parents think about the situation?

How offended was he with the work?

He wasn't to bad. I think it shocked him, he said that he now has a new found appreciation for that type of labor. I dug at him a little when I told him my then 13 year old daughter stacked over twice as much of it last year and what he was moving was just what was left. That I think made him feel a little more meek.

What did the young lads parents think about the situation?

Oh they were pissed. Mom's a teacher at another school, dads the superintendent at our school.

Good morning crew, okay afternoon. Missed the morning cup of coffee due to no cell service where we were at this morning.

The trade off was worth it though. Walk up a stream surrounded by redwoods and no knuckleheads.

Of course I slipped in the stream and got pretty wet but as my daughter communicated to me: with you dad, it’s not IS something going to happen, it’s When is it going to happen.
