It appears that a spat of cold weather did not dissuade my brother’s sheep from doing steeply things. A new addition to their family has arrived.

Last week I did a trip to Costa Rica … it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it, right?
I didn’t take too many photos while I was there. I did find time to do an excursion to the rain forest and saw some Sloth’s and frogs. It was good to do an international trip again.

No, but will find out. The young one is a ram and the mother is named Marshmallow.
Edit: He says that it’s a Babydoll. Keep in mind that they are more a hobby than a business at this point. Successful ex city folk, wanting the farm life. They do work pretty hard taking care of them though. Horse, goats, and sheep. The kids have chores too.

Ida and friends celebrated several birthday parties at the DarkLight laser game here in town. I went to pick her up once and she was in high gear bragging loudly “I KILLED EVERYONE!”
Let’s just say, it wasn’t what I expected to hear, so I went like “Yeah, nice… Well done, dear…”, smiling sheepishly.

Many years ago, a friend wanted to have her birthday party at a party park that had laser tag and go-karts. We were in our late 20s and early 30s.
First match of laser tag, we found ourselves matched up against a team of middle school kids. One of the girls from the other side exclaimed, “we’re Team Young, and you all are all Team Old. You’re so old!”
The birthday girl, all 5 feet nothing and 100 pounds soaking wet, walked over to her and very calmly just replied,
“Oh little girl, you’re so going down.”
Final score was something like 5,700 to 30.

Me on the other hand.
I once got talked into paintball with a mate for his kids birthday, they were only 12 so I promised to be kind. Unfortunately his son told all his mates “Uncle Harry used to be in the army so we need to gang up on him”.
Little fockers! Small targets, high on a soda/sugar rush and hard to hit. Plus you you can only get shot in the balls so many times (even if you are wearing a cup) before you need to call time out…
