busy birthday day

Sorry, another short post.

We went out to commemorate the boy's birthday this past Tuesday.

We went to Karters Korner with three of his friends and they had a day of go-karting and paintball. Very reasonably priced and it included their lunch!

The boy wiped out on the track as he was starting one of his laps as some knucklehead pulled on to the track and was waiting for a buddy. The boy had to steer around him and ended up in the rough. Otherwise no mishaps and a bunch of fun.

They then played for some time on the paintball course. Karters Korner basically built little villages out of plywood. That is where the boys engaged in painted battle. They loved holing up in the church tower. Lucky there is no paint artillery. They played against some dad and his two kids. They all played with honour.

One of the boy's buddies in the first round was the first out. He took a shot in the face mask at the mouth. There is a grill to allow airflow and he ate a bunch of paint. A bit funny and he was alright. They all have a few welts. The boy has three we found. One on the knee, his thigh, and a doozy on one shoulder. That one looks like the cross section of a jawbreaker.

They had a blast. 

Then we went to "our" Mexican restaurant for supper. A great dinner again. I like the ranchero, now I can get it with chorizo sausage. Awesome!

So, now long day, super tired. Going to have a digestif and hit the sack. I have lots of work to do tomorrow. I will get back on track this week. Thanks for indulging me. Cheers! blbbl
