KendoCamp: Packing
Okay, so tomorrow is the day, totally stressed to the gills so having 5 days away from it all with my boy at my side is just what the doctor ordered. It's around 10:35pm, I've just finished packing up all the clothes, weapons, armor, toiletries, towels and a lot of gatorade packets. I'm bringing a camera and the cable to upload pics, so I'm hoping to be able to showcase some cool stuff while I'm gone.
We're also bringing a bunch of cool dude-vies (movies for dudes) that Aidan and I will hang out and watch. Should be a really good bonding time for us, with nothing else to concentrate on except our technique, sweating, not passing out, swimming, watching some REALLY experienced kendoka, and just generally enjoying some time off with my best boy. He's a little freaked because he's going to be staying in a dorm room by himself, but I'll be right next door, so if freaklevel gets too high, I'm right there. Truthfully, the amount of training per day is going to waste his sorry butt and he'll be asleep 20 min after dinner 
Tomorrow morning will see me dropping off Gillian at the bus for her Girl Scouts camp (its horse riding, and it's 8-5), then going to get my car inspected (yes, it's overdue from July, don't tell). Then I'll swing thru, pick up Aidan and the stuff, and we're on our way to camp. Totally stoked now that I'm done with work for the week and thinking about this. Nice thing is, it's also only 1.5 hours from here, down near Philly.

What a great dad you are. I know a few dads who, given the chance to have some time away wouldn’t think to spend it with their sons. I know you’ll enjoy this. I hope it ends up being the amazing experience you’re planning on. Have fun!
