today was man-day monday

With all the estrogen in the house last night (11 senior girls hung out with my wife and Delm all night), Levi and I had to recoup a little of the manly spirit. He had the day off from school, so today we eschewed the shower, jumped in the truck, and headed out for some man stuff.

We started at the Army-Navy store. I think we may have found our newest hangout spot. I have always been a scrounger, and Levi inherited that trait from me. We spent about an hour pouring over packs and pouches, hats of all kinds, camo clothes, belts and gadgets...Levi wants some ninja throwing stars and a set of numchucks. We'll have to tell Santa.

Then we rolled over to Gummo's butcher shop to pick up the deer that I shot Friday. There's something special about being with the one you love in a room full of animal carcasses!

We came home to finish some homework (Levi had to write a report about a Community Service group, and he chose our church!) in time to catch the first half of Monday Night Football before Levi shuffled off to sleepy town.

Overall, today was a good day. It's tough to beat the Father-Son thing, you know?
