Toyomafia - The Clubhouse. 151.880

I’m beyond words, my main man and I went for a hike today……….. he’s 5 going on 26 at least. The only other hikes he’s been on have been paved and 2ish miles total. Today we went on one that has made grown men cry, broken bones, caught on fire two years ago; 5.6+ miles total. Estimated times of one way were 2 hours, he smashed it soooo hard, but safely(that was my main concern on top of 7 others, that he’s a damn wild card and would try to power thru all the super sketchy spots in the least accommodating footwear)
He literally only complained/threw a fit, once, on the way down………..
To which I tried to handle as adult as possible, so we took a break and tried to calm down, and then I said we were leaving without him……… started walking and I hear my bros laughing, shit eating grin on my sons face………….I was just kidding!!!!! And runs ahead of me…………
We had a blast! I can’t wait to go back with him!
Lil ripcurl in there for @Hightide

soooooo many people had trail boners as we were coming down and Eman just killing it, “Superman”!!!

 

The cobra chickens are back in our neighborhood and I’ve taken the opportunity to be a good parent and teach my 5 year old that’s what they’re called.

 

A better day than me. Prolly a better day than any of these hacks.

 

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!

 

Beautiful lookin spot! Quite a hike for a little man,good for him hanging in there. Must of been a good dad and remembered snacks.

 

Awww thanks!!!
I feel like there are some pretty good papas in here.
Me and my aunt were taking the other day, I said I was pretty sad he doesn’t get any grandpa time, plenty of grandma time(which my mom does lots of fun stuff with him) so I try to get as much man time with him as possible. He’s also cresting into that age where it’s actually a lot of fun, still want to pull my hair out, but fun!!! My mom also gives my shit about taking him out of school for our adventures, my response is, any day of the week!

 

Lots of snacks and lies.
“Just a little bit further!”

 

Sounds so familiar. Good times!!

 

That’s awesome! Yeah, I used to take my kids out for outdoor adventures. Some of my best memories with them.

 

That's awesome, and having a Dad is so important to a growing boy. He'll always remember these kinds of things, and hopefully he will continue that tradition with his own kids.

 

Haha he calls one of my buddies “raven” for some reason? And he kept asking if I could smell raven? So I was like well yeah! He’s right around the corner! Every so often he would stop, and sniff the air like an animal, and say, I think I smell raven and Jake! So I just went with it, on top of other distractions, we powered thru the trail and smoked all the day hikers; we have strong affliction w day hikers…….. except the cute ones we get to take our picture

 

Now this is a fire post.

 

That’s where I’m at, he’s growing up like I did. We did a camp out every month in scouts.
I know I get frustrated with him and try to tone it back, not trying to follow my dads foot steps in that arena, and try to make it enjoyable for him, he’s a defiant little shit……….no clue where he gets that from…………. Hahahah

 

So
Much
Love
!

Took my girl out to the swamp last week to find a skunk ape and some gators for @War Machine to fight.

and that was after a weekend up at ranch letting her get behind a rifle. This time is irreplaceable and they will always remember it. We have a blast on these adventures together.

 

It’s up to us to raise these kids to grow up to not to be like the dickheads we are surrounded by.

 

What do we do about the dickheads raising more dickheads? Can we institute Purge rules?

 

Awesome!!!!! How old is she and what is she shootin? I think I got my first BB gun at 8, I was sooooooo stoked!

 

Be funny as shit to have each of our kids write a funny memory about each of us and post em hear.

 

Let me know when.

 

I’m in

 

Dickhead parents phase out after time. I lernt that from Idiocracy dock you meantar e....

 

The motley crew, I wish she would have taken a selfie or something…….

 

Great pics!

 

.22 she is 8 she has had a BB gun for awhile. Teaching them young about guns has proven to be a very good thing. The older one started shooting at 8 also and now as a teenager her favorite is the suppressed 300blk. Puts a smile on my face.

 

Luckily we have @Fotnot putting in the work to try and outpace the idiots, too.

 

Hell yeah, did you start them at 8? Or when is a good age? My son loves stick guns like they’re not growing on trees anymore! He knows what guns are, but I don’t know if he’s quite ready, or maybe take him out with a BB gun?

 

Can't speak for others, but we grew up going shooting with 22s and a 357 Magnum as kids. We were given BB guns at about 8, but had shot the real firearms prior to that. Of course, Mom and Dad had to help us hold them, but we learned young.
