Zoo Trip with Class I had the pleasure of accompanying my son and his classmates to the Cincinnati Zoo. I acted as the chaperone. I had four boys with me and three other chaperones. It was a lot of fun watching them interact with the animals. It was a cold day so not many animals …

Archery Night I tagged along with my wife and sons to their practice night that occurs in a local barn owned by a supporter of the school’s archery program. It was the first time I’ve had my bow out in awhile. I made some good shots and groupings but I started screwing around with the …

Weekend with Ben Ben and I went to Dutchman’s to shoot rifles. I spent the entire weekend doing homework, in fact I’ve spent the last several weekends doing homework, so I wanted to get out with someone for a little bit.
