I spent some time tonight out at a hobby shop with my oldest. My youngest was at a late night doctor appointment, so we had some time to kill.

I bought a sweet ass glider and a pine wood derby car kit. That shit’s not like it used to be. I recall a 2×3 inch block of wood that I had to cut, carve and sand into shape.  The kit we got is all ready to go. All you need to do is paint it, put the included stickers on it and you are done. Not what I recall. Not what I’d rather see him doing, but at this point he’s only 4 years old so maybe it’s just his speed.

We shall see how that works out.

The glider I got him, we put together in the parking lot and kept flying it until the rest of the family showed up to pick us up and take us home. It was a good time.
