I am such a Proud dad

I am a very proud dad. My youngest son has been busy making a path to my workshop.  
He is out with his mother getting more gravel but WOW. 
No help by me he has done ALL this on his own.

Do you hire him out?

Not yet, He still has the patio to do and a few other jobs. My Eldest Teenager of a son is not interested in this at all. 

However HE built the Shed I talked about to a few of you before. 

Both love to destroy anything! Just don't ask them to clean it up! 

And My Youngest pictured here at 12 years old, really enjoys doing this. He laid a membrane down and then put over 200 lbs of Sand as a foundation, and over 600 lbs of gravel. I am very proud. 

And yes he does get paid, His Allowance!!!! 

Ok there might be other benefits he gets such as Bank of Dad for Bullion and other things like me building RC Trucks etc. But hey..... Child Labour.. OH YEAH

Your toy truck collection needs a clean Jon

That's awesome he did a great job

LOL  They kinda are mine but really all my youngest sons... He wants them ALL converted to RC. 

And M&M it looks a lot better and is far safer than a mud bath it used to be. It is now finished but we have bigger plans for the garden. I just draw it and source the materials. My boys do the work.

Very cool hope you help build memories with them by helping or guidance which I'm sure you do cause your awesome

And they've done a great job so far (though I have a feeling proud Dad spoils them rotten!!! )

Goodness gracious me, those are serious changes though, won't the bikini girls revolt at the removal of the mud bath?

(I faced a similar situation once - it did not end well - for me )

Oh my golly geez I wasn't thinking about thee bikini wrestling in the back yard now you've done it jon lmao

"(I faced a similar situation once - it did not end well - for me   )"
I think we need more information on this  @kimchi

It is a inside and ongoing joke. 

It's special because no one apart from  @kimchi or myself would understand 

Then I shall make a wild assumption and just take it that you and  @kimchi are into mud wrestling. It'll be tractors next.  

Lol this is great

What? Mud wrestling or tractors? I'm sure they would let you join in if you asked.

Both 


@kimchi is a long along with a few members on here like  @Fortune8 and well I could tag quite a lot of members really... so I wont. 

But yes we all have our little jokes, 

PS I still cant find what I am looking for  @The Cat's Mother Its all John Deere stuff. DOH 

very nice, good to see a young lad with motivation to do something physical rather than be sitting in front of a screen. Good on him!!!!!

Hi there @CanadianGoldHunter , nice to see you back. I'll be heading over to you part of the world soon, British Airways and ArriveCAN permitting.

Nice, I have been lurking and watching but havent been as active as I would like, where is your intended destination? if you happen to visit Ontario and the Niagara Region, I would love to meet up with you

I'm afraid not, otherwise we would have been beating a path to your door! We're starting in Vancouver, then the train up to Jasper; overland to Banff and than the train back to Vancouver and a couple of days at the end. Shall I send you a postcard?

Could you send Jon a tractor? Then if it's an absolute horror he will be stuck with it instead of me for once, unlike all these useless mud-wrestling bikini girls I ordered for both of us (and then he goes and paths the garden!) I have here that I cannot do anything with

The postage costs for a tractor would be prohibitive. I'm sure you'll think of something to do with your muddy ladies..

Oh yes free to join this mud wrestling match but you must wear a bikini

Looks amazing 🤩

Sorry, wetsuit and wellies as a minimum.
