So yesterday, Caleb and myself went and had a man day together. We started off at the YMCA where we were denied swimming access, the jerks! We then proceeded to clean out my messy car before grabbing some hot chocolate from Big City Coffee in the linen district, which was quite delicious i might add. we ended up at my friend Trevor's house where we went out back to his man shed, which is really a barn, to look and admire dead, "stuffed" animals that he and his dad had shot over the years. Caleb, who is six years old, soon to be seven in june, found this site truly amazing and awesome. the dead deer, elk, buffalo, bears, coyotes, cougars, and many racks of antlers and piles of bones were very intriguing and inspiring for future hunting endeavors to be had, and trophies to be shot. oh yeah, and lets not forget the freshly skinned raccoon roadkill hanging by it's hind legs, and bloody and beaten from the car that hit it that Trevor had found the day before! after seeing the barn, we headed outside to shot some BB guns and work on our aim. Caleb i must say did quite well at shooting the cans, while i need to work on my aim. Lunch followed this and then back into the barn we went to learn how to make indian artifacts, or better known as arrowheads. Caleeb has a very good imagination when it comes to making and inventing things. To prepare for the evening events, we took a short nap before heading over to Combat Fitness to do some MMA training and also to lift some weights. Caleb is a very strong six year old boy who though rough and tough can instantly transition into a soft caring person, and watching this happen is truly awesome. from the gym we headed home to eat some dinner and watch some cage fighting on TV. this was our man day, which was a lot of fun and prepared us for future man days to come.
